The DeKalb County Volunteer Fire Department’s newest station has been recognized with a new award.
The Four Seasons Station, which just opened a few months ago, has been honored with the first ever First Bank Station of the Year Award.
Casey Midgett of First Bank and DCFD Lieutenant Kristie Johnson presented the award during the department’s annual banquet Saturday night at the County Complex.
“This award goes to one of the 12 stations in the department based upon the following criteria: Station/equipment maintenance, Submission of monthly maintenance check lists, and Station Commander or station representative attendance at the monthly officers’ meetings,” said Lieutenant Johnson.
“We certainly want to recognize all stations that have demonstrated pride in making the county-wide department accountable and ready to respond. However, we especially want to recognize a station that has outstanding achievement in meeting the criteria for this award,” said Midgett.
