Notices for a public meeting were distributed in mail boxes in the vicinity. The first meeting was held at Holler’s Road Stand on January 25, 1946. From the Minutes; It is our good purpose here tonight to organize a fire co. To protect the community against fires and to assist with equipment which we hope to have in fighting any fires which cannot be prevented. We not only are organizing but we are here also to dedicate this company to the honor of the Sandt’s Eddy Boys, who served so well in extinguishing the worldwide fire, and especially in memory of Bob Menear who sacrificed his life in that great humane effort.
