MAYOR.Wil Voss ATTEST:Nancy Flickinger FAIRFAX FIRE& RESCUE PROUDLY SERVING FAIRFAX-WALFORD&SURROUNDING AREA With the spring weather putting the farmers behind this year, heavy farm equipment is still traveling back and forth on all our roads. Please be aware of your distances when approaching the farm machinery, since they move at a much slower speed. Also be aware of the width of the equipment because they take a larger part of the road to travel on and can't always move over. Think ahead and become a defensive driver, The members of the fire dept, would like to congratulate junior fire fighter Tyler Schwartz on being a 2008 graduate from Prairie High School.Tyler also received an outstanding service award from Prairie for all of his time volunteering in the community by way of the fire dept. Good luck in the future, The members would also like to congratulate and recognize Lynn Miller, Derrick Sexton, Steve Carrlger and Kevin Costigan for successively passing all of the classes and testing to become First Responders of the State of Iowa. These fire fighters gave up many nights going to school and studying to help out the dept.and better their communities. A job well done! Just a reminder that Walford Fun Day is June! 14.There are many things to see and do. Be sure to go to the fireworks that night. Also on June 28 is Fairfax U.S.A. Day. Don't miss the parade and festivities through out the day and evening. The shoot team has been busy planning since this winter.This year's fireworks will be guaranteed to be breathtaking.
