Smithfield VFD receives donation
Smithfield Volunteer Fire Department received a donation from the state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) earlier this year to purchase equipment to fight brush fires. The $3,479 check was used to purchase leaf blowers outfitted with water tanks to help firefighters battle field fires and forest fires.
