Hunter Blue Ball fire substation dedicated on Dixie Highway
More than 150 people attended the ceremony as keys were handed to Hunter Fire Chief Denzel Mullins and Sheriff Roy Wallace. Franklin Township trustees and the Blue Ball Historical Society dedicated the new fire substation, which includes a sheriff's outpost for special deputies. Jim Dean christened a new fire pumper with Dick's Creek water, and a Colorado blue spruce was donated for planting by the Historical Society in honor of Harry Beachler's retirement after 12 years of service.
