its 150th
anniversary

Since 1859,
the

efficiently
and

five-mile

The MFD now
answers well
over a 1,100
calls a
year; these
include
structure
and brush
fires, motor
vehicle
accidents,
emergency
medical
service and
rescue
calls, and a
variety of
public
service
requests
such as
flooded
cellars and,
very
occasionally,
the
legendary
cat in the
tree.

time for

better

and
receives
additional

support
through
mutual
aid
arrangements
with
neighboring
communities.
