The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Dear Editor,

As a rural land and homeowner in Columbia County, I am pleased with the efficiency and responsiveness of our local 911 dispatch and fire department.

While most local families are enjoying a Fourth of July, barbecues and all the holiday events, many department staff and volunteers are working to protect homes, property and people from fire; trading time with their families to protect us.

Please continue to join me and support our local fire department, volunteer firefighters, 911 dispatch and County Emergency Services. They do a stellar job for all of us. My family and I are grateful for all they do.
