"Vinton Fire Department wants to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of those that assisted us at our call last night. It was a hot, humid and long night (at least it was after the "cold" front went through!):
North Benton Ambulance for taking great care of us
Vinton Police Department for assisting with tasks from keeping a protective perimeter to interviews of residents to traffic control and hydration runs
Urbana-Polk Fire Department for sending manpower that was much needed as the heat and humidity definitely limited everyone's work capacity
Benton County, Iowa Sheriff's Office Dispatchers for coordinating and communicating with all involved
Also, extreme appreciation to the American Red Cross and Benton County Emergency Management for assisting those affected by this incident.
We likely missed a few others who brought cold water and we were told Kwik Star provided snacks when we all needed a little sugar and salt. Thanks to anyone else that assisted in ways we were unaware of at this point. If you see anyone involved with any of these above agencies/businesses, please offer them a hearty thank you.
Also make sure to thank the crews at Vinton Municipal Electric Utility (and all other linemen working long and late hours getting the power back on) as they were actively working on power outages still at 1:45 am when we were headed home for showers and bed."
From all of us in Vinton, a heartfelt thank you to our men who show up voluntarily with the Vinton Fire Department to put out fires and respond to all kinds of emergencies in the community. You are very appreciated by all of us!
