The Burton Fire District plans to tour the area next week with its newest fire truck before putting it into service, according to a news release.

Dan Byrne, district spokesman, said the 2010 Pierce Quantam pumper truck will go into service early next month after it is shown to Beaufort-area business.

The fire district is offering tours and rides on the new truck for Beaufort-area business next week, Byrne said.

Business owners or managers interested in setting up a tour or rides for their employees are asked to call the Burton Fire District at 843-521-5550.
