Mike Herren and Kimmie Jackson helped organize an event to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the City. Some retirees of the department came to visit and collectively provided historical information about the department. Even three previous Fire Chiefs attended from various era's. Chief Charlie Bryce (64-68), Chief Charlie Joyner (86-88), and Chief Mike Bower (88-04). Old photos were passed around and stories were told! The Chief of Training (Rodney Foster) had Major's academy attendee's sit in and listen as well to learn more about the history of the department.
