We’ll keep an eye on this little guy - he may be running the department before we know it! Firefighter Bouchard’s son, Jack skipped a few ranks and went straight for the top job! - Chief Pelletier

On behalf of the Fort Kent Fire Department, I’d like to thank SW Collins and our local community for their generous donation to help support our local department! Please keep all those affected by the Searsmont incident in our prayers! - Chief Pelletier

This week the fire department responded to a variety of calls. We had a tree down on a wire earlier in the week, a motor vehicle accident mid week, an overheated exhaust fan at NMMC yesterday and an ATV fire earlier this morning. Thanks to Captain Raymond and Captain Voisine for covering daytime calls in my absence! Chief Pelletier

Early last evening around 7 pm, we responded to an automatic mutual aid call to Eagle Lake for a reported structure fire. Great job by Eagle Lake on their initial attack. Good work Chief St Germain and your team!
