Last
month, volunteer fire companies in the towns of Lewiston and
Porter offered area residents and future firefighters a glimpse
of what life is like as an emergency responder as part of
their Community Day exercises, held in the back parking lot
of the Lewiston Porter Middle School on the Creek Road campus.
In the photo above, members of Lewiston #1 Volunteer Fire
