Last weekend we celebrated Paul Guthridge's 50 years of continuing service to the Hindsboro Fire Department! He was presented with this Henry Big Boy, C**t 45.

Thank you Paul, for 50 years of volunteer service, and thank you Sharron for the countless hours of support and many nights of anxiously waiting for Paul to return safely.

Attention Hindsboro residents: It goes without saying that downed power lines are extremely dangerous and should be avoided but we would also like to remind you to make sure to notify your power company of the downed lines at your location. They are aware of widespread lines down but still want individuals to report their own lines specifically.

ALWAYS assume downed lines are HOT!

Get ready for the 4th of July parade! We will be hosting again this year on the 4th! Show up at 8am to register to be in the parade. The parade starts at 9am.

Following the parade, come back to the station for the bike raffle which is free for the kids! Trustees will be there doing their glider raffle. We will also have someone set up selling raffle tickets for Alan and Carol Myers to assist them with medical expenses.

Lots of options will be there for refreshments:

- Guthridge bakery
- Big Al's
- We-li-kit icecream
- Feast 4 kings food truck

We will also have a firetruck set up for kids to play in the water. Hope to see you all there! It will be a great time!
