It shouldn’t say “wanted”, it should say “needed”. The volunteer fire service is in serious trouble and if more people don’t stand forward and volunteer, the volunteer fire service will be just a fond memory.
The Volunteer EMS System is facing similar issue! O
The #Albany County Legislature held its 2019 Grant Award Ceremony today recognizing 34 organizations who dedicate their time helping others in the community and continue to make a difference. The recipients of these grant awards demonstrate what the outcome is when people come together, help one another and work on projects to make our community a better place.

Thank you to everyone who put in their time and efforts to secure the grant money. Much appreciated.
Just after 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 18, the New Baltimore Fire Department was called to the area of 13556 Route 9W for a reported structure fire.
The caller stated they heard an explosion and believed a trailer on the property was on fire.
One homeowner from the house near the trailer ran over with a fire extinguisher, however, the fire was too big for the extinguisher to handle.
There was nobody inside the trailer at the time of the fire. The trailer is owned by the parents of the individuals that live in the other house on the property and mainly use it for storage.
There were cats on the property, however, they were outdoor cats. There were at least five cats seen on the property, but the exact amount of cats is unknown at this time.
The Coeymans Fire Department responded as mutual aid, with Coeymans Hollow Fire responding with their FAST Team and their UTV to bring equipment and members up the steep driveway to the scene of the fire.
Also on the scene was Ravena Rescue, Greene County Paramedics, Greene County Sheriff's Department, Greene County Fire Investigation Team. Ravena and Selkirk fire departments were on standby.
The Greene County Fire Investigation Team was on the scene and the cause of the fire is believed to be electrical at this time.
