We attended last night, but the pictures we took were pretty terrible. So we're "borrowing" these.
To be called a legend by your peers in the fire service is rare at best. To actually be one is even more rare. Stanton Seeberg fits the bill and has made an impact on the Stillman Valley area and regionally for decades.
Retired Chief Seeberg is truly deserving of the recognition. Thanks for being one of the legends of our local fire service community!

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Congratulations
Our enormous thanks to the Office of the Illinois State Fire Marshal for awarding the district a small equipment grant that paid for a turnout gear dryer and a carcinogen barrier protective hood for each firefighter. The dryer just arrived and was assembled today, and the members have all been issued their new hoods.
Carcinogen exposure is a real and present threat to the well-being of all firefighters, and having clean turnout gear and PPE is critical to reducing that exposure. While the district has had a washer/extractor for well over a decade to clean the gear, drying time can keep a member out of service for over a day. This will expedite that time a great deal, ensuring our firefighters can be back in service in their personal gear sooner.
We've also historically issued two firefighting hoods to members to allow them to be washed and rotated thus reducing exposure risks, but the carcinogen barrier hood will now offer a higher level of protection, especially to areas around the scalp and head that are hot-spots for absorption of carcinogens into the body.

That’s an awesome addition to help keep everyone as safe as possible.
This past Sunday's event would not have been possible without the generosity of many. Huge thanks to the local businesses that helped us with their generous donations, to our personnel and their family and friends that helped with the event, and Admin Assistant King for being party planner supreme! ...
