New truck for Addison Fire District

Excerpts from the Addison Fire Protection District on Facebook:

We are excited to introduce our latest addition – a 107′ aerial from Pierce. Today, Widaman Sign completed the decals, and it looks fantastic. Next, the aerial will undergo upgrades for new radios and emergency lighting before it returns for final training and deployment.
Ladder 72 will be at station 72 in the industrial park and will play a vital role in our operational strategy for the next 10-15 years. Serving as our truck company, it will carry many items including heavy-duty extrication tools. Additionally, it will be ALS equipped and staffed with firefighter/paramedics.
 
We extend our gratitude to our Board of Trustees for making this purchase possible.

This from Tim Right:

Per The AFD face-book page
The AFPD proudly donated our retired 1996 E-One engine to the Campus FPD located SW of Dwight, Illinois. This small rural district protects the citizens of Campus and Emington Illinois with all volunteers. We hope this engine serves this district and the citizens they serve for many years to come.

Addison Fire District updates

This from Tim Right:

Hello, This is from DC Joe Leone
Hello Mr. Right, we purchased and are now building two new ambulances for the District. They should be done in July. They are from Horton and are F-550. We will sell just one of the old ones and have a total of 5 ambulances. 3 full time, one spare with gear on it and one in reserve. The two engines are in reserve and one of them is at station 1 the other is at station 3.
Also I have attached the new quints pictures so you can add them to their numbered station when you are updating.
Thanks,
Tim
