Marlette Fire covers approximately 97 square miles, protecting a population of 8,500.  The department runs out of one station, they are a voulenteer department with 22 members.  The run approximately 100-120 runs a year.

After we finished up at Oliver Township about 40 minuets north of here, I decided to drive by and get a PIC of the station since it was nice out.  We went to turn around behind the station and luck was on our side as they were just finishing up washing the brush rig.  They hada just returned from fighting a fire earlier.
