Arnold, CA...This morning it became truly Official. New Ebbetts Pass Fire Protection District Chief David H. Baugher was presented his official Badge during a special ceremony at the Main EPFD Station in Arnold. Chief Baugher has big shoes to fill. The Chief's position was held for many, many years by Warren Wilkes. Under Chief Wilkes EPFD grew to be the premier fire & EMS protection district in the entire county. Many of the other districts in the county look to EPFD as the model agency to emulate. From all of us at ThePineTree.net we would like to congratulate Chief Baugher and we wish him years of success...
 
Luann Baugher pins the Chief's Badge on David while son Jacob looks on. |
