Elmwood Fire Department were hard at work last Sunday. They burned a house down as part of a training exercise.

This is the house before the fire.

During.



Resting afterwards, just keeping an eye on the smoldering remains.

There are more empty houses around town that they could burn down, too. The Elmwood Fire Department is great and we are lucky to have so many people volunteer to help us.
One other thing that the Fire Department does...FIREWORKS! Seems like an unlikely conflict of interest for the fire department to run the fireworks stand but this way they can keep an eye on who's buying what and can offer safety tips. And so they will know where they may get called out to! The fireworks stand is officially open!

FreecycleMurrayNE(R) hopes to encourage everyone to recycle rather than sending items to landfills.
You might have upgraded your appliances, furniture or just cleaned out your craft supplies. OFFER them to someone else, instead of throwing them in the trash.
Have you recently completed a building project and and now have leftover lumber, drywall, etc. Hey, someone might need that to repair something.
In searching through your cabinets, have you come across that super, spectacular bagel-maker that you've only used once? Now it's just sitting there taking up valuable space on your shelf. So get rid of it already! Oh, and what about mint that you planted and it's now outgrowing its' pot? Share it with someone else who also has a green thumb.
REMEMBER...NEVER is money to be involved and it's FREE to sign-up!
The Murray group is also for surrounding areas!
