The NLFD is assisting Wilmot FD with a chimney fire on Village Road. Firefighter Bartlett and Peltier extinguish the fire by dropping a chain ball down the flue. We recommend that if you burn a lot of wood, having your chimney cleaned multiple times during the heating season might be needed

Thank you Scott Hafner for shoveling out the hydrant in front of his brother's house after 12+ inches... we appreciate your assistance. Having quick access to a hydrant is important in the event of a fire.

Black Friday had a different meaning for this young driver, who was not injured, as he almost crashed into Pleasant Lake. Bunker Road was closed for a couple of hours as NLFD personal stabilized the vehicle, and stood by until the car was removed to ensure there were no fluids leaking into the lake.

Please join us this coming Monday, Sept. 11th at 11:00am for the Patriot Day Celebration and remembering those who were lost 16 years ago. (photo: Paul Howe)
