The boat will be docked by itself on the East Norwalk side of the river, close to the quarters of Engine 3, those are the members that man the boat.

SECTMB, Thank you for the reply. I work at our temporary firehouse just across for our old HQ. we are very excited for the new firehouse. If you are in the area when your work starts, stop in and say hi. It will definetly be a new Big House.

SECTMB who do you work for?? Just curious as I am a fireman in Norwalk, and curious as to the scope of work you will be doing in the new building. Thanks

Good Evening, The Norwalk Firefighters Local 830 will be hosting a warm up to St. Patty's day on March 6th at Oneills Pub. The benefit is to raise money for the Lenihan School of Irish Dance who will be traveling to Dublin, Ireland to compete in the Irish Dancing World Championship( one of our fellow members daughter is competing). A $20 donation is all we are asking for and there will be food and drink specials throughout the evening. Of course there will be dancers performing from the Lenihan School. I believe some members of the CT Firefighters Pipes and Drums will be performing and maybe the Norwalk Fire Pipes and Drums will come out of retirement. Please come out and support the Norwalk FF's as we try to support the Lenihan School of Irish Dance. Thank you for your time. The event starts at 4pm.

Guys, for the past 15 or so years I have traveling to Utah to go skiing at Alta and Snowbird, both these ski area's are at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon Road. This road is incredible how steep and dangerous it can be at times, there is no bs in what they say during the show about the danger of the road. That area of Utah gets amazing amounts of snow, every year(550 inches last year)I have been stuck up top on a few occasion's and once just barely made it down the road just as they were closing the gates.It is an awesome area of this country of ours, and I recommend if you ski or snowboard to make a trip out to Alta or Snowbird, you wont regret it, I promise.

I vote for Colony, in Stamford. The best around, in my opinion.I highly recomend it. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone.

Gary was truly the pride of Belltown. I always saw a smile on his face and a big hello any time I walked through those doors. Rest in peace friend. David McCabe

I was justed issued a Phenix leather helmet at work to demo. I kind of like it, it is a bit lighter than the new yorkers we usually wear. It does sit a little high on my head. The nice thing about the helmet, is that the liner and ratchet system is alot easier to remove than the cairns.

The beer by products is true. I plow for a friend and we get whats called "Magic Salt"its treated with beer by products and mollasses. It works better at lower tempature than regular road salt or calcium. I have to admit the stuff works get and smells really good, but it is very expensive.

I personally worked with Bogy alot of times over the last 10 years, and he will be missed by all. He is one of the best

Thanks, I missed the previous post stating that there is a multi agency response's.

Is the San Diego FD the only agency in the city with bomb squad capabilities.

Having been to Ireland many times, I would recommend staying in and around the Temple bar area, or the Oconnell street area. There are lots of hotels and things to do in those areas. The guinness brewery is in walking distance from Temple bar, probably a 15 to 20 minute walk. Enjoy yourself and bring an umbrella, you will need it.

There was an eye doctor in Westport, Ct named Dr. Doctor. I am not sure if he is still around, I remember going there as a kid.

The rig is going to have regular compartment doors I believe. It is due to be delivered sometime around the end of the month.
