KINETIC Says Thanks to Greendale

Joseph Masters, President of The Kinetic Co., Inc. was thinking of a way to say “thanks” to the Greendale Fire Department and Greendale Village officials who assisted with making the recent addition to Kinetic a reality. Mr. Masters also wanted to say “thanks” and give back to Kinetic’s neighbors and the community for putting up with the visual “mess” during the construction process.

During one of several visits to Kinetic during the addition process, Greendale Fire Chief Jon Cohn and Mr. Masters discussed some of the new technologies incorporated into the Kinetic addition. Chief Cohn was envious of the technology and stated the fire department was just now on the verge of purchasing GPS units. When Mr. Masters heard this he immediately offered to donate the funding for several GPS units for the Greendale Fire Department.

On September 11, 2009 the Greendale Fire Department placed into service three GPS units with a generous donation from The Kinetic Co., Inc. Although firefighters typically use maps to route calls, the GPS units provide assurance to finding the correct location especially when not responding from the fire station, and when responding into neighboring communities.

Greendale Fire Department Ambulance, Ladder Truck, and firefighters visit Kinetic on October 5, 2009 to show off the newly installed GPS units and say thank you.

The Greendale Fire Department looks forward to the continued, well established relationship with Kinetic that has been enjoyed since Kinetic moved to Greendale in 1970. The Greendale Fire Department wishes to thank Mr. Masters and Kinetic for not only purchasing the GPS units but for supporting the Greendale Fire Department by incorporating fire safety and suppression into their facility.
