The new Mule sees some action

MULE
New ATV
Last May the Stayton Fire District received a generous donation from NW Scales and Freres Lumber in the form of a Kawasaki Side by Side Mule. The District has recently put this new apparatus into good use. The District used the Mule for the Summerfest celebration acting as an equipment mover and first aid response vehicle. The Mule was used by Aumsville Fire District for their annual Corn Festival, and then it was used on a mutual aid call to Jefferson Fire District to gain access to the fire that was burning on Wiseman Island; which is managed by the Oregon Dept. of Fish and Wildlife. Without the Mule, Jefferson Fire Crews would have had near impossible access to estimate the size and growth of the fire which helped them determine the threat to the surrounding community and farmland.
