National Fire Prevention Week

VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS from across the region train weekly as individual departments, but on occasion they gather for extra opportunities to learn skills needed to help maintain the safety of the communities. At one recent training, several area firemen were photographed during a propane tree training exercise. Those visible are Mike Mach, back left; Justin Mathiason, middle, and Josh Neuhard from the Summit Fire Department.

In honor of the area firefighters during National Fire Prevention Week, the Review readers will find a feature story inside this edition, highlighting the tenure of Justin Mathiason as a Milbank fireman.
