November 2004: New Squad Ordered
At the November 2005 meeting, the membership of the Bower Hill Volunteer Fire Department voted to replace the existing Squad 255, a 1995 Chevrolet 4x4 Pickup, with a new 2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty 4x4 Pickup. The vehicle will be equipped with more utility storage than the existing squad, and will have a pull-out bed tray for easier and safer access to heavy equipment. The new squad will be configured for easier use on Carbon Monoxide Alarm calls, which now make up a significant part of the department's wintertime call volume.
