Another area fire district benefits from a state grant program to help fight wildfires. The Southwest Camden County FPD has received a grant from the Missouri Department of Conservation. The district used the grant to purchase leafblowers, a saw, chest harnesses, backpacks, and wildland turnout gear. The MDC grant provided $3,000 that had to be matched on a 50/50 basis with local funding, for a total of $6,000.
