Fire Station 1

During the annual Firemen’s Dinner on Tuesday, the Orange Volunteer Fire Department Auxiliary announced it would be donating the money it has raised from its fund-raising efforts to the department for station upgrades and new air packs.

Auxiliary President Jillian Gagel talked about the success of new events the group had featured in the past year, and reminded members to attend the Pancake Supper at Chips on the Boston Post Road on April 27.

Several members were honored for the length of service in the Auxiliary. Those included Barbara Boppert, Linda Gagel and Mary Gagel, 25 years; Victoria Arms, Gloria Capecelatro, Bert Gallant and Bette Goodwin, 20 years; and Elaine Capecelatro, 15 years.
