Every year during the February Roane County Commission meeting, one member from each of the county’s five volunteer fire departments is recognized for outstanding contributions to the department as Firefighter of the Year.

At Monday night’s meeting, these firefighters will be recognized: Drake Gould with the Midtown Fire Department, Chief Charlie Redwine with the West Roane County Fire Department; Dana Mitchell from East Roane County Fire Department; Shannon Cox from South Roane County Fire Department, and William Fox from the Blair Volunteer Fire Department.
