ROXBURY — The RVFD responded to 145 Fire Calls last year and 180 EMS calls.  The Landing Zone has been built, thanks to support from the community and especially noted was the fundraising work of the Friends of Roxbury.  The Landing Zone has been used for helicopter medical evacuations more than 10 times already and comments by the users are very positive.  A dedication will be planned for this summer.

Mariah Stratton who joined the RFD in late 2023, was recognized for her commitment to the Department and community, having already completed many required classes, with more scheduled, while working for certification as a firefighter and for EMS service. 

Officers were installed with congratulations upon their election.  [See below or see previous article for this list.]
