Two friendly rivalries heat up as South End Days begins July 21. One takes place on the field, when the Superior Fire Department faces off against the Superior Police Department. The firefighters walked away with last year's inaugural Guns-n-Hoses softball title. As South End Days head organizer Kalee Hermanson remembers it, the score was 20 to 10. "We did better than winning, we smoked 'em," said firefighter Dan Sertich. Eyeing up the "young bucks" who have joined the police force over the last year, fire department members met for a quick practice last week.
