We had our United States, and POW/MIA flags stolen. Our flag pole at Station 13-1 has been bare for sometime in hopes that the person responsible would come forward. That never happened. However, our story was heard by an amazing group of individuals who wanted to help right that wrong. They are Rolling Thunder, Inc, Ch1 out of Elma, WA. Mr. Robbie Robinson of Rolling Thunder contacted us about donating a flag. So on December 9, 2021 during our regularly held Board of Fire Commissioners Meeting Rolling Thunder came out and raised a new flag. In attendance from Mason 13 were Commissioner Brian Core, Commissioner Dane Hansen, Commissioner Shawn Sisson, Chief Stan Loertscher, AC Tami Donovan, AC John Avery, and FF/EMT Sue Avery along with Robbie Robinson, Gary Cobb, Corey Clark, Rob Horton, Carol Quimby, Bill and Mary Ellen Parrish from Rolling Thunder. We are proud to have these flags fly with more meaning than that of a simple replacement. That a community came together to help each other. On behalf of Mason County Fire District 13, our volunteers and community members we would like to thank Rolling Thunder for their donation and their dedication to the community.
