(Arnolds Park)--Arnolds Park/Okoboji Fire and Rescue had a busy 4th of July holiday weekend.  AP-O Fire Chief Chris Yungbluth says the department responded to 15 medical calls and came in contact with 22 patients and had four Fire Boat responses for water medical emergencies. Youngbuth says they were also on stand-by for four events including three concerts at Arnolds Park and an EMS crew on a Personal Water Craft for the Lake Affect concert.

In addition, Yungbluth says AP-O Fire and Rescue responded to two residential fire alarms, two fireworks debris fire calls, and three dumpster fires for improper disposal of fireworks debris. Yungbluth says one of those calls is suspicious. They also responded to the plane crash Saturday near the Dickinson County Nature Center. 

Yungbluth says he would like to thank those volunteers who responded to calls, stood by at events, or hung out at the station to ensure a rapid response to emergencies over the holiday weekend.
