e <br /> We need to take better care of our battery powered equipment.After the Wilson fire,the <br /> thermal imaging camera battery was low. A couple days later it was found with the dead <br /> battery still in the camera. The gas monitor also needs to be checked frequently. <br /> We received a first place trophy for hose relay at the Palisade fire fighter rodeo. There <br /> were also a couple close seconds and thirds,but they don't count. <br /> The house burn scheduled for this Saturday was cancelled. The Wadena fire rodeo <br /> scheduled for this Saturday has also been cancelled for us due to lack of interest. <br /> The DNR tanker is almost ready to be painted. Brian has asked his supervisor at the Body <br /> Works if we can get a deal to have it painted there. They are willing to help us by <br /> painting it in a regular paint booth and baking the paint in a finish room. There will be a <br /> fee for this but it should not be over$500.00. Peterson II motioned to accept their offer, <br /> second by Knutson,motion passed unanimous. <br /> All of our personnel have passed the NIMS requirements except Mike Peterson. He will <br /> take the test when he is home on leave. Copies of the certificates should be in the City <br /> file and a copy in ours too. <br /> There will be an open house for fire prevention week at our station on October 11 t'. From <br /> 6:00 to 8:00 pm. We should have the smoke house,a hurst tool demonstration,and an air <br /> bag demonstration. The fire prevention X rogram for Eagle View elementary school <br /> should be held on Tuesday, October 10 . We need about 10 to 12 volunteers. Peterson I <br /> and II, Dave Knutson and Szymanski, Larry,Natasha,Patrick,Jeremie,Kirk,Dan, Tom, <br /> and Daren have committed. There will be a work night before the open house. <br /> We need to plan what we are going to do with the ambulance. We will need a radio and <br /> air packs. Also it will need to be lettered. Bill Rickard will make a few calls to see if we <br /> can get some donations to help with the costs. The vehicle would be a good <br /> communication command center. This will be tabled for tonight and planned in more <br /> detail at the next Officer's meeting. <br /> Natasha asked for volunteers to help move tables ands chairs on Friday, October 6th for <br /> Daren's wedding reception.
