Ambulance district holds monthly meeting

The Nodaway County Ambulance District Board heard updates from staff during their meeting October 8.

Some of the members of the Tri-C Rescue Squad are testing a new app called Tango Tango, with the goal that it will clear up static and be able to replay calls for those who cannot get the calls on their pagers.
