I have lived in Duck Creek for 13 years, with my wife of 23 years and our six children. I have seen much growth and many changes in Duck Creek in that time.I have personally seen the many changes that have come to the Cedar Mountain Fire Protection District. When one of my daughters was 18 months old she fell from our second story balcony and was seriously injured. We fought to keep her breathing as we waited 45 minutes for an ambulance to arrive. After that I watched as a First Responders course was taught to many Duck Creek residents, my wife being one of them. Eventually that led to the acquisition of an Ambulance and certified EMTs. I have watched as many of our fire volunteers have been successful in obtaining higher certifications. My wife has served as an EMT since the beginning and my son started as a junior firefighter and is now certified in Wildland and Firefighter I and II, and EMT. I see these certifications as a direct result of the hard work done by our current Fire Chief, Chief Johnson. I have shown my support for CMFPD by being on the board for the last nine years. I have served as Chairman of the board for the last two years. I have shown by my volunteer service on the board that I can be a positive influence on the importance of continued training, acquisition of needed equipment, and the improvement of the fire departments ISO ratings. I have 25 years of experience in the running and managing of my own businesses. I served on a board of directors for homeowners. I served on the Duck Creek Civic and Ad association. I served on the Kane Co. Sheriffs Search and Rescue. I support the current direction of the CMFPD and agree with the platform of the CMFPD Supporters. I believe in changes when they benefit the people and the economics of the mountain. I urge everyone to vote for the candidates that will recognize the growth and changes needed to help our CMFPD to continue with it's current goals. Thank You - Bryan Romney
