House Burn Tomorrow

These details on the house burning were handed out to the neighborhood earlier this week. A series of small fires will be set and doused starting tomorrow morning and the final burn will start in early afternoon, from about 8:30 am to 5 pm.

DETAILS: Parking will be restricted along Shirley Street. Folks with respiratory problems are encouraged to stay indoors during the exercise. Public viewing will be available at the Ruston School parking lot AT 5219 N. Shirley Street. There is hope to take video from inside the burning structure and post it on the Town's web site eventually.

Bates Technical College Fire Training is running the show in partnership with Ruston Fire. Crews have been practicing and training all week on the building. This offers invaluable training to our great volunteers. Thanks to the owner and builder for giving our guys (and gals) this great opportunity!
