The Oak Creek Grade Volunteer Fire Department (OCGVFD) says thanks to CF&E from Silver Cliff for the donation of water for fighting fires in the rural area off Oak Creek Grade. Rick Corage and his son delivered 1,700 gallons of firefighting water to a newly installed cistern and totes. The water will be used for wildland fires in the area if needed. The cistern was installed through a grant offered by the Fremont Conservation District earlier this year. OCGVFD is encouraging residents to be fire wise and prepared for a fire event.
