Greetings residents of Morgan and the surrounding communities! Welcome back to the column written with the interests of town of Morgan residents in mind. If your organization has a news item or event to share, please contact megan.stranz@gmail.com or visit the Morgan website, www.townofmorgan.org. One upcoming event is the Green Valley-Morgan Fire Company’s annual summer picnic, scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 8, at the Green Valley Firehouse, N5746 Oak St., in Green Valley. Chicken booyah, brats, hamburgers, hot dogs and refreshments will be served, starting at noon. Some of the many fun activities will be live music all day long, a gun raffle, and pedal pulls and bouncers for the kids. One highlight of the picnic is the Abrams-based band Renegade performing from 7-11 p.m. at the firehouse. This is a great opportunity to meet the members of the Green Valley-Morgan Fire Company who have the important task of helping to keep our community safe all year long. The fire company has 26 members on its roster and responded to 31 calls last year. Please consider bringing your family to this event and letting the fire company know that you appreciate its service. The Green Valley-Morgan Fire Company is looking for recruits.
