Because Tuesday night is the fifth Tuesday of the month, Arkport Hose Co. #1 Inc. notified members and the community that there are no events planned at the hall. Call activity has continuing at a steady pace, but the hall is still quiet. With two days left in the year, the department was four calls away from matching its all-time high as of Saturday and five calls away from setting a new record. As the department wraps up the year, members have been urged to record the number of times the siren has sounded this week. Before the year is up, final call totals will determine if the long-standing record is matched or exceeded.
