Clarion Springs EMS

12/04/2020

Hello all!
We will be looking a little, ok, a lot different in 2021. As some have followed in the news, rural fire departments in our area will be known as Consolidated Fire District One! Included are these rural fire departments include Clinton, Kanwaka, Eudora, Lecompton, Wakarusa; Clarion Springs EMS in the consolidation. The goal is to have more personnel, more equipment to help in emergencies in our area.
We will have a new look and identification but we are here for you like we have been for the last 30 years, just better.

Please let me know if you have questions or you may contact Chief Baxter who is the chief of the new consolidated district. He is currently chief at wakarusa township fire.

Have a happy and safe holiday season - if not- I guess you will see us!! Wash your hands, wear your mask and be good to each other!!

Director CSEMS
