fi re has covered almost
78,000 acres of vegetation.
Along with a department
brush truck, the fi refi ghters
joined the Columbia County

fi re, Chief Joey Daniels told
the City Council on Oct. 28.
Div. Chief Lt. Chris Dugan, and fi refi ghters Jenson Segui and Matt Savage at the Kincade Fire

the 78,000-acre blaze.
According to Seaside

Deck installation offers a salute to veteran
By R.J. MARX
Seaside Signal
Members of “Team
Depot” converged on this
home on North Wahanna
Road in Seaside this week
for a labor of love. They
responded to a request for
assistance from a local vet-
erans’ group to come to the
aid of a Vietnam veteran in
need.
On Monday morning,
Team Depot co-captains Jer-
emy Gleason and Sandie
Laccinola were joined
by Mitch Thielen, Daniel
Fox-Telford, Anthony Bel-
tran, Mindy Mead and Tony
Poelstra in replacing a deck
in need of repair, provid-
ing materials and labor at no
cost.
“The deck was in disar-
ray,” Gleason said. “Part of
it was sunken in and falling
apart. They had caution tape
around it. He couldn’t cross
the front to walk around to
his utility room.”
This is co-captain Sandie
Laccinole’s third major proj-
ect with Team Depot, which
reaches out to local com-
munities and helps those in
need. “We’re always look-
ing for projects and the more
we can do to help the com-
munity, the better,” she said.
“‘Anytime we can get out
as a team and do something
for a community, it’s just
awesome,” Gleason added.
