North Judson-Wayne Township Fire Chief Joe Leszek recently extended his appreciation to everyone who attended the anniversary celebration that was held on Saturday, October 12th.
Leszek shared, “Our 130th Anniversary went well and I wanted to thank everybody that was able to come out. We gave away 200 early warning devices and we had about 400 people through the door.”
Chief Leszek stated that it was a great opportunity to hear from residents about how the Fire Department is a consistent element when discussing North Judson’s history with the community.
He explained, “All of our families were there, we got to see a lot of community folks and just hear stories about how the Fire Department and this Town have kind of been intertwined for so many years and how everybody seems to have a story, whether its a relative at some time or family member that was part of the Department so it was great to hear those stories.”
Leszek provided special thanks to Town Photographer Peggy Bohac for providing pictures of the event.

North Judson-Wayne Township Fire Chief Joe Leszek informed council members Monday night that an engine that was out of commission for a while is now back in the fleet.
He explained, “Engine One is back from Collision Auto Body from the damage that happened over the winter from sliding backwards into a pole during that ice storm.”
Leszek presented members with a purchase order of $961.36 to pay for the repairs and noted that was significantly less than the initial cost estimate.
Leszek shared, “The quote originally for that truck was $2,700. Collision just did that for parts right now, they donated all their labor so I really want to thank them for giving back to the fire department and helping us out that way.”
Councilwoman Jane-Ellen Felchuck recommended sending a thank you note to the business to recognize them for their generosity.

With many residents using these nicer spring days to clear their yards of leaves, limbs and other organic debris, North Judson-Wayne Township Fire Chief Joe Leszek issued a few safety tips about brush burning at Tuesday night’s Town Council meeting.
He explained, “We’re getting into spring brush season so I just want to remind everybody to be cautious when you’re burning, don’t burn on windy days, no burning of anything man made,”
Leszek continued, “if you do have a fire it needs to be attended and no burning at night, unless it’s a bon-fire and, of course, you’re keeping it attended.”
Chief Leszek indicated that it’s been pretty quiet brush season so far this year and for the safety of citizens, they’d like to keep it that way. If you happen to spot a fire that appears to be unmonitored and out of control don’t hesitate to call 911.
