Spatenka receives honor from Waterville Fire Department

Brian Spatenka of Waterville was honored with the 2018 Friend of the Fire Department Award during the Waterville Fire Dept. annual meeting March 19.
According to Waterville Fire Chief Chris Meskan, during the recent flooding events the last few years, Spatenka has voluntarily worked side-by-side with the fire department in sandbagging efforts around town.
He only took breaks to check the flooding around his home and refueling the generator that was running a pump to keep water out of his house.
“Many friendships were made during those times and we want to thank Brian for that friendship and his continued support of our department,” Meskan said.
