The Nebraska State Fire Marshal Training Division conducted a controlled burn in November 2018. The house used for that firefighter training exercise was donated by Craig Draucker. Firefighting is an important part of our community, and we are proud to support their safety and efficiency as they serve the community. Firefighters from around the region came to town for this event, including those from Ogallala, Madrid, Grant, Hyannis, Imperial, Hershey, Keystone-Lemoyne, Scottsbluff and North Platte.
