Firefighters on hand for Grand Opening

       Members of the White River Township Fire Department were on hand to discuss fire safety at the Grand re-opening of the McDonald's restaurant on Marlin Drive.  The restaurant had been closed for the last few months while workers completely rebuilt it to complete its image upgrade of the building.  Because the event coincided with Fire Prevention Week, firefighters were asked to talk about fire safety and help celebrate the event by handing out coloring books, toy fire helmets, and other items to children.  The department's Union membership also had its antique fire truck on display, which is a re-creation of one of the department's first trucks.
