Jason Karr with the Clinton Fire Department indicates that the fire district raised close to $10,500 dollars going door to door asking for donations. Karr says that they also tested and gave residents smoke detectors.

 

 

Karr notes that the fire department begins its fundraising efforts in early February and continue until the entire fire district is covered.

 

 

The money raised from the recent fundraising efforts, will go towards purchasing new equipment and the training facility. Karr indicates that the training facility is the best form of training for firefighters of all experience levels.

 

 

Karr thanked the Clinton Eagles for their recent fundraising efforts that they donated to several local fire departments.
