"My wife and I attended the Maryville Citizens Fire Academy and it was an eye-opening experience. Witnessing the training a firefighter goes through on a weekly basis made us feel safer. The hands on training we were able to participate in as part of the class was exhilarating and at times breathtaking." Tim Strickland
