Five B.A.V.F.D. firemen responded to Peg Garmen Road in Cumberland County to assist the Burkesville Fire Department in combating a large barn and woodland fire.

Peg Garmen Road is located off the old Kentucky 61 South, 4 miles from the Adair/Cumberland County Line. The call came in Saturday, September 8, 2007 at 3:27pm. Firemen were on the scene for an hour and fifteen minutes. Other firemen stood by at the station for a call.



The five firemen that responded were Brandon Harvey, Brian Fudge, Terry Harvey, Jerry Elliott, and Ed Wigal.
A reminder: Emergency Drought Measures: Burning Ban, and 15% water use reduction order in effect. With the extremely dry conditions and winds, fire hazards are much greater than Adair County has seen in a long, long time.
