On Friday, 5/29/26 Norwich Fire Marshal Ryan Southworth with Firefighters Blanchard, Muscarella and Rose were happy to assist the Norwich Free Academy with filling a dunk tank for a special event. The event was an incentive for students who got near perfect attendance and in turn they got to dunk their principals.
