The Weekly Packet
|February 20. 2025
A burning barn off Salt Pond Road in Blue Hill sent every Peninsula fire department racing to the scene on Tuesday, February 18.
The call came in at 3:47 p.m., and firefighters were on the scene until around 10 p.m., according to Blue Hill Fire Chief John Chapman. Volunteers from the Sedgwick Fire Department were first on the scene, followed by the Blue Hill, Surry, Brooklin, Brooksville and Penobscot fire departments.
Chapman said firefighters from Stonington, Deer Isle and Orland stepped in to provide emergency coverage while the other departments battled the blaze.
