I received a phone call from Jeff Hooker.  Jeff is the city admin. for Camdenton.  We talked about how the city is progressing economically and about some new business that is coming or already established in the city.  We also made mention that the city pool will be opening soon.

Scott Fransen is the Chief of the Mid-County Fire Protection District.  We found out that calls are up, and manpower is down.  We also found out how to properly obtain a burn permit.  Scott also mentioned the creative ways they are trying to find volunteers, both older and younger.

Doug Beck came by to share some information on "Wearing you Lifejacket to Work Day" and about their annual boating safety seminar.  I also learned some grim statistics about the lake and loss of life due to people not wearing their lifejackets.
