Rescue responded to a complaint of the smell of smoke in the area of the Citrus Hills Golf

Club in the Hernando area. While firefighters were en route to the area, they were advised

by dispatch that a deputy was on the scene, and smoke and flames were visible.

A full alarm was activated with crews responding from Kensington, Hernando,

Inverness, Connell Heights, Homosassa and Pine Ridge. Squad 23 arrived first on-scene to

find a 6000 square foot steel structure fully involved with fire inside. The structure was used

to house the golf carts for the golf course. Due to the extent of the fire, crews attacked the

fire defensively from the outside. As crews arrived, they aggressively attacked the fire and

brought it under control at 1:26 am.

The use of a fire hydrant near the structure assisted greatly in the extinguishment

of the fire. No one was at the structure at the time of the fire. The State of Florida Fire Mar-

shall s office was notified and responded to investigate. The fire is still under investigation.

The structure, valued at $510,000, and its contents, valued at $600,000, were a total loss, the

combined totals in the amount of $1,110,000

was originally called Yankeetown Woman's Club but Inglis was eventually added to the title as
