The Cedar Springs Fire Station got a new paint job this week.

The Cedar Springs Fire Department now has a more appropriate color for their fire station—fire engine red. City employee Tom Stressman started painting the fire barn last week, in preparation for Red Flannel Day.  It formerly was brown.

“We had to paint the door, so we thought we might as well paint the whole thing,” said DPW Superintendent Jerry Hall. He said it had been 10-12 years since it was last painted.
