KENT—The Kent Volun teer Fire Department will celebrate Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Week with a number of activities. The activities will conclude with an open house Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the firehouse at 28 Maple St.

Newly formed Campus EMS Auxiliary is looking to start a student-run EMS service on campus. An Ohio State program that was at one time eliminated due to budget cuts might soon be resuscitated.

This week is EMS Week across our state and Tuesday, families and co-workers of the EMS personnel we lost last year came together to honor them.  Sidney Cummins reporting.
