NORTH BROOKFIELD — After more than a year of waiting, and after two votes last year to pay for it through a debt exclu- sion, the North Brookfield Fire Department’s new lad- der truck (dubbed Tower 1) arrived Friday, Nov. 20. A group of firefighters and town officials were there to welcome it to the fire station. Features of the new truck include a 105- foot aerial ladder, a rescue basket, a crane, a stretcher sup- port system for trans- porting injured people or firefighters, and a 1,500-gallon-per- minute pumping sys- tem. The million-dollar vehi- cle will replace a 1983 American LaFrance ladder/pumper and, thanks to an agree- ment with the Highway Department, will be parked in a bay at the highway barn that pre- viously housed an ambulance. The ambu- lance will move into the fire station. Twenty-five years of celebrating history ANNUAL QUABBIN RESERVOIR CALENDAR MARKS MILESTONE

LEICESTER — Becker College’s animal health program hosted its bi-annual Pet Fest Saturday, Nov. 21.

The animals are later put up for adoption at the end of each semester. Anyone interested in adopting the animals, or getting more information, can call kennel supervisor Kara Rudgis at (774) 354-0660.
