Today is National First Responders Day, let’s thank our Fire, Police, Dispatchers and EMS for everything they do for our town.
when you see the fire truck responding, the ambulance racing to help someone, the police officer assisting a resident, give them a wave, say hello or a handshake and thank them for being there, and if you happen to see one of our highly trained dispatchers, thank them for their service to the town. Dispatchers, the eyes that never close.

Have you tested your smoke alarms? Don’t forget to change the batteries

Older adults are at greatest risk of death or injury in a fire at home. Please check in with older friends, neighbors, and family members to be sure they're protected: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/smoke-and-carbon-monoxide-alarms
