The Wray Fire Department has sent a crew of four members and a Type III apparatus to Oshkosh, Nebraska today to assist with the Morrill Fire. Please keep our crew, all the firefighters battling this fire, and the state of Nebraska in your thoughts and prayers.

This is just a glimpse of the calls w-y communication took the night of 12/17. We appreciate all the thanks the well wishes and the prayers the food and drink as fireman but let’s not forget the people who handled the call before the fireman got the call. The staff at the comm center always rocks their job and manages to control the chaos going on outside of the walls of the comm center they are just as on scene as we are and they are handling multiple scenes at a time. From Wray Fire thank you w-y comm.

Railroad training today was a huge success. We have a lot of things that come thru our town that we don’t normally deal with. Learning the protocol to protect our community is priceless. Thank you to Wray PD and Wray EMS for participating. Sometimes it takes all hands on deck.

Another king of the grill is in the books. We want thank everyone that came and supported us. We had a record number of teams that competed for the title. Every year we try to add just a little bit of entertainment. If you didn’t get a chance to walk thru the arcade bus it was probably because it was full of kids. If you have any photos feel free to tag us here. Again thanks to everyone who keeps this event going. We will see you all again next March.
