Unfortunately, the rental have not been doing so great the past couple years. Firefigher Jim Hintz hopes this year will be different. 

The department has five suits available for rental; one of them was hand-made by a firefighter's mother-in-law.

In past years the department has been able to raise as much as $400 for a season. 

If you need a suit, or think you need a suit call the Greendale Fire Department at (414) 423-2131.
