The minutes for the February meeting have just been posted. Click HERE to go to the minutes page.

We made a small change to the home screen of the site to help people better understand what the OFRN is for and how to become involved. The participating agencies information was removed because we grew so quickly we could not add everyone's information to that small box. We replaced that information with a few FAQ's that we can update as needed. If you have any ideas or suggestions on how to improve the site, please use the contact us form and we'll happily look it over.

We would like to welcome Lt. Bill Hansen from Aurora Fire and Tina Quintal from TVF&R to the OFRN!
