Ten years in the making, Richland Volunteer Fire Department has officially received their new brush truck into their fleet of life saving vehicles.
After applying for the grant a decade ago, being approved took them two years and finally enduring the chip shortage of 2022 – the new Ford F-600 was finally ‘buttoned’ up and outfitted by Skeeter Brush Trucks. RVFD also received a $25,000 donation from Duke Energy to cover the costs of the truck.
This Tuesday evening, celebrating National Night Out with Richland Police Department, you can stop by and see the brand new addition. The event will take place at the Richland Civic Center beginning at 6 pm. Come out and meet the members of RVFD as well as the new Richland Police Chief, Zachary Hoffman.
Richland VFD will celebrate it’s 100th year in October with a celebration at the fire station, nicknamed ‘Kenny’s House’ after retired chief Kenny Guard on October 28th. The entire community is invited to attend and help celebrate this exciting milestone!
