Tuesday, March 20, 2012 at 04:08PM The Oxford Fire Department has undertaken the task of restoring the old Studebaker Fire Truck that the fire department has owned since it was purchased new. Larry Jiras and John Lovetinsky are heading up this project and some real quality work has been completed. The Fire department would welcome any donations for this cause. If interested in making a contribution toward this project drop off at City Hall dropbox or mail to Box 215 Oxford, Iowa 52322 in care of the Fire Department. Anyone interested in viewing the progress are welcome to contact a fireman and they will be delighted to show you.
The fire truck was used in cooling many a rider last July during RAGBRAI here in Oxford, see some of the pictures below in the RAGBRAI column.
Earlier the"old Fire Chemical Cart" was restored and is also on display in the Fire Department.

The community of Oxford was "Fired up" and ready for the RAGBRAI riders to come to our town of Oxford July 29,2011. The community was excIted and thoroughly enjoyed all the RAGBRAI riders passing through!
We hope to see many of the riders pass through and stop again to visit us in Oxford. Our community is pleased to welcome visitors anytime.
The day was hot but Oxford was ready with our 1929 vintage fire truck hosing the riders down. Plenty of free water and a cool first aid station at City Hall.
Drinks and food was aplenty as well as greeters. Our MC, Jason Jenn, introduced the different bands and had plenty of bike and fire men jokes to rattle off the loud speaker.
We really want to thank RAGBRAI and their leaders, especially T.J. and their great organization of a friendly, courteous and entertaining group of bike riders all over the globe! Our town folk experienced a day long talked about and remembered for their lifetime.
A few pictures of that eventful day July 29, 2011, are below, so enjoy. We also have Oxford postcards and T-shirts left for sale (see the photos in posts below).
E-mail oxfordcityhall@southslope.net or write City of Oxford at PO Box 481, Oxford, IA. 52322.
Thanks for all your support for our community.
