My name is Eunice M. Weber, I’m writing this article to give you an idea of my qualifications and reasons for running for a Director on the Kiowa County Fire Protection District Board. 

I have lived in this Community for 51 years, became an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) in 1999.  In 2003, I began serving as the Kiowa County Ambulance Director.  

As the Ambulance Director, I have written several grants addressing the need of acquiring updated Ambulances and equipment for us to take care of our Community.  

We are all doing what we can to limit the spread of COVID-19. With social distancing and staying at home, the risk of infection is less. The federal and state governments have ordered all non-essential businesses to close. This is necessary to reduce the risk of spreading and contracting the virus, and it’s working. Unfortunately, though, millions of people have lost their jobs as a result of this. It’s truly a double-edged sword scenario; if you lost your job, you are home safe from the virus but can’t pay the bills.
