Old Business things from before

Gear - Chief handed out jackets and t-shirts. A set was missing for John Fedel and there was a misspelling on another, for Tyler.

Log Hill Fire - The department held a short debrief regarding the recent mutual aid to Log Hill during a fire. In general, the aid went well with six fire fighters taking the Ladder Truck up to help. Ridgway and Log Hill both sent their thanks.

New Business things coming
