Virtual field trip with Lynn Fire Dept.

From the Lynn Fire Dept.: Firefighters hold a powerful mystique for many children. A trip to a local fire station can therefore be both exciting and educational. During the spring our stations are usually busy with school tours for all our young children of Lynn. Unfortunately Covid-19 didn’t allow for that to happen this year.

So we wanted to bring the firehouse to you. Please have your children enjoy this short video our members put together. In the future, we will be making more videos so your children can see more of what we do, the tools we use, and how they work.


Salvation Army food pantry info.

The Salvation Army of Lynn is operating a drive-thru food pantry for those in need and offering deliveries for seniors and the disabled. Please see the graphic below from them for more information.
