Appreciation post! Thank you Simulation in Motion-IA for coming out and providing this training opportunity for our First Responders! They give real scenarios that make you think of different solutions and get your mind racing. We appreciate any extra hands-on learning we can get and look forward to doing this again soon! Also, thanks Tiffin Fire Department, Iowa for participating in this as well. Being able to invite other surrounding departments is always a wonderful experience to work together!

We are truly honored and grateful to have Tracy on our department. She does a lot for us and our community! A big thanks to Mark for nominating her and sharing her with us!

Today is our final 'First Responder Friday!' Our last honoree is Tracy Pettinger, who was nominated by Mark Pettinger! The entry reads:

"Tracy has been a first responder in Oxford for 5 years, and she has inspired both her son and daughter to be volunteer firefighters/first responders. Along with being a first responder, Tracy also helps organize the department's fundraisers and mentors new first responders in the department."
