🦞 **Lobsterama Update!** 🦞

September is here, and we’re at 455 lobsters sold so far... that’s 25.6% of our goal of 1,776 lobsters for this year’s Lobsterama!

We still have a ways to go, but we’re really happy with the start and excited to see where we can get by October 3rd.

For those who haven’t checked it out yet, we also have our Ready-to-Go Lobster Meat available in 1-pound and 3-pound bags. It’s fresh, pre-cooked and pre-shelled, just the lobster without all the work. Order yours today at vflobsterama.com.

Save the work, enjoy the lobster.

As always, proceeds from Lobsterama help support the Vischer Ferry Volunteer Fire Company and the work we do in our community.

And a big thank you to Tony at the Clifton Park Spark for helping us with our website hosting and stepping in to help us out. We really appreciate the support!

455 down, 1,321 to go. We’ll keep you posted as we work our way toward 1,776! 🦞

CRESCENT ROAD CLOSED BETWEEN OAKWOOD BLVD AND FAIRMONT DR

Please be advised that Crescent Road is closed between Oakwood Blvd and Fairmont Dr, including access from Walnut Drive. This closure is due to a large tree across the roadway, which has resulted in downed power lines and a transformer fire.

Personnel from VFVFC and National Grid are currently on-scene. We anticipate that the road will remain closed for a few hours as crews work to remove the tree and complete repairs.

Please seek alternate routes.

Today was awesome! We had our first car show at Station #1. Not only did we have great weather, but also almost 120 cool cars. We're so thankful to everyone who participated, the hundreds of people who came, and all the members who helped make this event a success. Can't wait to do it again!

From Clifton Park Water Authority:

A significant increase in water consumption has been observed, leading to a reduction in water tank capacity. This excessive water usage not only impacts our domestic water supply but could also compromise the ability to maintain adequate water reserves for fire suppression, should such an event arise.

We kindly request that all individuals adhere to the established Odd/Even irrigation restrictions and practice responsible water conservation methods.

Should you have any inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact the Clifton Park Water Authority directly or visit their official website at

We’ve upgraded our billing software to provide you with a faster, more convenient, and highly secure payment experience!

We conducted another successful water supply training exercise last night, utilizing our new 4000-gallon tanker.

Leveraging the water from a single ETA and our tanker, we successfully maintained a continuous flow through two 1 3/4'' hoselines simultaneously for over 13 minutes, without requiring an additional water source.

Additionally, we practiced establishing a portable tank operation, connecting three tanks via a siphon system.

They're pictured here with Chief Kimball and Captain (Past Chief) Bruzdzinski.
