Hermantown Fire Chief Takes Over as Arrowhead President

The Arrowhead Regional Firefighters' Association has a new President. It's Hermantown Fire Chief Ron Minter, who was elected to the position on September 9. Minter is no stranger to the association and he shares a deep concern about the organization's future. One of his priorities will be dealing with slumping attendance at the regular meetings.

Chisholm Fire Chief Bob Brown, who had held the top slot for ten years, is now serving as Vice President. "Ron will do good in this position," said Brown. "He has his work cut out for him, but I think that he is up to the challenge."
