This mural depicts three different scenes thtat represent this fire departments history. In 1929 the equipment was simpler and involved horse drawn pumps, with the familiar dalmation represented. The agricultural spirit of the area is also portaryed in the first third of the mural.
The second scene, although not dated, appears to be from the 50's with new equipment, emergency services and the familiar dalmation standing guard.
Finally the third scene of the mural portrays modern equipment and a more urban like scene...by now the year is 2004 and 75 years later the dalmation is an important fixture of the fire hall.
