Our Hometown Hero of the week is firefighter Ryan Arnett! 

Ryan was nominated by his sister, Catherine Jones, who said: “Ryan started out as a junior firefighter for Banner Elk Volunteer Fire and Rescue. After graduating from high school, he moved to Apex and was hired by the Apex Fire Department. Through the years, Ryan has risen through the ranks and is now a Lieutenant on Ladder 35. Ryan also works part time at Moncure Fire Department. He loves his job and works hard to protect the communities of Apex and Moncure. His family is very proud of the amazing work he does!”

Thank you, Ryan, for your service! We’re sending you a gift card to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q as a “thank you” for all you do!
