We're not thrilled to see this stuff falling from the sky, but hey, it's River Rat week, so bring on the snow! The Athol-Orange River Rat race is this Saturday, and they're kicking things off with a parade at 9:35 in Athol. The canoe race starts at 1pm, and we'll be there with our boat and a crew for shore support, cheering you on. Good luck, participants!

***SHOUTOUT!!!

The snow-stars at the Phillipston Highway Department have been working their magic (and their snowplows) to keep our roads clear and our town safe. Rick, Scott, Craig, Donnie, Steve, and Tim, you're the real MVPs - thanks for keeping us moving and relatively entertained (all puns intended). And extra points for digging out the fire station, guys!

Good afternoon, as you all know it's snowing. We could get anywhere from 3 inches to 42 feet!

We will be staffed during the duration of the storm to help get apparatus to emergencies quicker than responding from our houses.

Phillipston Police Department will be staffed overnight for the same reasons.

Our friends at Phillipston Highway and MA DOT will be out in full force clearing the roads however one full pass on the town roads can take up to 5 hours! And with snowfall rates expected at 1-3" of snow an hour the roads will build up quickly with snow. Plan on a slow ride and use caution.

Also, there is NO SCHOOL for the Narragansett Regional School District Templeton/Phillipston, MA tomorrow

Be safe out there and enjoy the snow ⛄️
