Excerpt from Annual Report of the Town of Alton, New Hampshire, 1990I wish to report that our runs are down which tells us that the residents and friends are doing their job Of fire prevention. The Alton Fire Department ended their year with 152 runs compared to 181 runs in 1989, and consisted Of structure fires, misc accidents, medical and rescue, electrical fires, brush fires, Mutual Aid, chimney fires and false alarms.I am pleased to report a full roster Of men and Officers with a waiting list Of recruits. This is a luxury very few towns have.The new fire truck is ordered which replaces Eng. A 1965 piece) in East Alton. The delivery date is set for April 1991.Our next responsibility will be to refurbish Eng. 5, a 1976 Mack and Eng. 2, a 1979 International. The trucks are too good to let rust away and also the cost Of new equipment is out of reach.My Fire Prevention Officer, Dave Jensen, reports a successful year with the training he holds at school and we hope all the parents have learned from the knowledge of the young firefighters!My Woodstove Officer, Jack Woodland, also reports a busy year Of woodstove and chimney inspections.Training schedule continues every Tuesday night. We hold an all day Mini School in the spring and in the fall. My thanks to Capt. Russ Sample for all his hard work.I want to take the time to thank Joe Boles for the many hours he has spent inspecting Oil burners in the town, for myself and two previous chiefs. For this service Joe has received little or no pay. They don't make many like Joe Boles today. Joe, we all love you and wish you well.Last but not least, I want to thank all my Officers and firefighters for your help and support each and every year, the ladies in the Fireflies for their many hours Of help whenever I call, the Town Officers and Police Dept. For their backing and co-operation and the Tax Payers and residents Of Alton for their efforts keeping the fires down and their backing which we so drastically need.We wish to thank Minge Cove Marina for the dock space that we received in 1990 for no cost. It has worked out great and we hope we have not been a burden to you.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
