C***r Sale Round 2

Get yours before it is gone! $8/ gallon

10/13/2026

Please join us in supporting Chenango Bridge Fire Company!

We invite the community to attend the Town of Chenango Board Meeting on October 14th at 6:00 PM in support of CBFC’s proposed 2027 budget.

CBFC has worked hard to be a responsible steward of taxpayer funding by refurbishing equipment rather than purchasing new, maintaining our apparatus, and investing in our buildings and grounds for the long term.

However, the cost of new fire apparatus has doubled in the past five years, while fuel, utilities, firefighter gear, and required training have all become increasingly expensive. Despite these rising costs, CBFC’s annual budget has seen little increase over the same period.

As an all-volunteer organization that relies primarily on Town funding, CBFC is requesting an increase to help maintain the level of service our community depends on while ensuring the safety of our firefighters and residents.

Thank you for standing behind your local volunteer firefighters!

🚒🪓 TOOL TUESDAY #6: FLAT HEAD AXE 🪓🚒

Simple. Reliable. Essential.

For generations, the Flat Head Axe has been one of the most trusted tools carried by firefighters. While it may look like a basic axe, it’s a versatile tool used for much more than cutting.

🔥 Forcible Entry
🚪 Gaining access through locked doors
🪟 Ventilation operations
🧱 Overhaul and exposing hidden fire
🚑 Rescue operations

One of its most important roles is working alongside the Halligan Tool as “The Irons”—one of the most effective forcible entry tool combinations in the fire service.

💡 Did You Know?
The design of the Flat Head Axe has remained largely unchanged for decades because it continues to be one of the most dependable tools on the fireground.

From the earliest days of firefighting to today’s emergency responses, the Flat Head Axe remains a critical tool that helps firefighters protect lives and property.

🎆 Happy Independence Day! 🎆
Celebrating 250 years of freedom with our community! 🇺🇸

As you fire up the grills and enjoy the fireworks, remember to stay safe and have fun. 🍔🔥 Here are a few quick tips from the Chenango Bridge Fire Company:

* Grill with care – keep kids & pets at least 3 feet away
* Keep it clean – prevent flare-ups by removing grease
* Check your equipment – propane tanks & hoses before use
* Have water ready – bucket, hose, or extinguisher nearby
* Dispose of ashes safely – soak & store in a metal container

🚒🔨 TOOL TUESDAY #5: HALLIGAN TOOL 🔨🚒

It may not look like much, but the Halligan Tool is one of the most trusted and versatile tools carried on a fire apparatus.

Used for forcible entry, search and rescue, window operations, and breaching walls, the Halligan helps firefighters gain access when seconds matter most.

Developed in 1948 by FDNY Deputy Chief Hugh Halligan, its design has remained largely unchanged for over 75 years because it simply works.

💡 Did you know? Many firefighters call the Halligan the “Firefighter’s Multi-Tool” because a single tool can:

🚪 Force entry
🪝 Pull and pry
🔨 Strike
🧱 Breach walls
🪟 Remove windows
⚡ Create access during emergencies

When someone needs help behind a locked door, there’s a good chance the Halligan Tool is helping firefighters get there.
