Manchester, Vt. — October 20 — On Monday evening, Manchester Fire Department members took part in Maintenance Monday, removing, washing, and repacking the 4-inch hose on Tower 1. The hose had been used the previous day during a controlled house burn in Dorset.
Routine maintenance like this ensures that all equipment remains clean, reliable, and ready for the next call — a key part of keeping the department in peak operational condition.
