Every LAST Monday of the month, (when circumstances permit it) between 7:00 pm and 7:30 pm, the emergency response personnel for Axtell gather for their monthly meeting. At this meeting they discuss needs of the department and their operational procedures. Then they check and clean all the equipment. It was at such a meeting that the following pictures were taken.
