Peebles Fire Department would like to invite all members of the community to a fire department open house / hog roast / Firewise Communities USA award presentation on Saturday, February 7, 2009 from 12:00 pm – 4:00 pm. The location of the event will be the new firehouse at 4613 Unity Road, Peebles. Citizens are encouraged to attend and enjoy a tour of the newly built Peebles Fire Department facility, along with some good food, courtesy of the fire department members and families. At 1:00 pm the Adams County Commissioners will be given recognition for awarding the grant project, along with a tour of the facility. At 2:00 pm, the Ohio Division of Forestry will present Peebles VFD with a Firewise Communities USA certification.
