Several of the former members of the Oak Grove Station spent the night for one last time this past weekend. Members enjoyed dinner and shared stories of good times at the old fire station. It was bitter sweet to see everyone come together one last time to pay a tribute to a place that held so many memories, Last night, I had the honor of spending time with the brotherhood that has had so much influence on the man I am today. These men are my brothers and they will always be with me and I with them. I can t put into words what every one of them means to me and my family. I am honored to have served with some of the bravest men and women on the planet, stated former firefighter, Billy Moody.

6 Page 6 Wet Down Ceremony Held For New Fire Trucks Cherokee County Fire and Emergency Services held a wet down ceremony in September at the Cherokee County Administrative Offices for five new fire engines. According to Assistant Fire Chief, Eddie Robinson, the new trucks are 2017 E-One Typhoons that each has a 1500 gallons per minute (GPM) pump. The trucks also have seating for 6 firefighters and on board generators for emergency flood lighting and equipment. Assistant Fire Chief Robinson thanked the Cherokee County taxpayers, the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners, County Manager, Jerry Cooper, and Cherokee County firefighters for their help in obtaining the new trucks. The Cherokee County Special Purpose Local Options Sales Tax (SPLOST) was used in funding the new trucks which cost approximately $400,000 each. Before the wet down ceremony, Robinson spoke about the history behind wetting down new fire engines. The tradition of wetting down the truck dates back to the horse-drawn pumper days, when horses were wet down to cool them off after a fire. A wet down is a large celebration in which the fire department will share in the joy of a new fire engine or truck by wetting it down before it goes into service. After a prayer from Cherokee County Fire Chaplain, Dana McPherson, members of the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners came forward with water in buckets to help with the wet down of one of the new fire trucks. The new fire trucks were put in services at the following stations; Station 1 in Oak Grove, Station 3 in Hickory Flat, Station 17 in Lake Arrowhead, Station 19 on Highway 92 West and Station 24 on Georgia Highway 5 near the Sixes Road intersection. Members Cherokee County Board of Commissions attend the wet down ceremony.

8 Page 8 Prepare yourself Winter Safety Tips Winter is upon us and now is the time to keep you and your home protected: Some winter weather tips to help you get through a severe stretch of cold: Stay indoors during the storm. Walk carefully on snowy, icy walkways. Avoid over exertion when shoveling snow. It s a serious workout, and going at it too hard can bring on a heart attack a major cause of death in the winter. If you must shovel snow, stretch before going outside. Stay dry. Wet clothing loses all of its insulating value and transmits the cold rapidly. Cold-related injuries Watch for signs of frostbite: loss of feeling and white or pale appearance in extremities. If any of these occur, get medical help immediately. Watch for signs of hypothermia: uncontrollable shivering, memory loss, disorientation, incoherence, slurred speech, drowsiness and apparent exhaustion. If any of the hypothermia symptoms appear, get yourself (or the victim) to a warm location, remove wet clothing, and warm the center of the body first. Give the patient warm, non-alcoholic beverages if they are conscious. And of course, get medical help as soon as possible. Prepare your home Some tips to brace your home for a winter storm Clean out the gutters, disconnect and drain all outside hoses. If possible, shut off outside water valves. Insulate walls and attics, and caulk and weather-strip doors and windows. Repair roof leaks and remove tree branches that could get weighed down with ice or snow and fall on your house or your neighbor s. (Avoid liability for the latter.) Wrap water pipes in your basement or crawl spaces with insulation sleeves to slow heat transfer. Consider an insulated blanket for your water heater. If you have a fireplace, keep the flue closed when you re not using it. Have a contractor check your roof to see if it would sustain the weight of a heavy snowfall. Make sure your furniture isn t blocking your home s heating vents. During cold spells, keep cabinet doors open to allow warm air to circulate around pipes, particularly those in the kitchen and bathrooms. Keep a slow trickle of water flowing through faucets connected to pipes that run through unheated or unprotected spaces. If your house will be unattended during cold periods, consider draining the water system.
