Celebrating local heroes

Local heroes were celebrated Feb. 14, during the Stratford-Auburndale basketball game at Auburndale High School. “Local Heroes Night” was organized by the Auburndale Leadership class to recognize area emergency departments including: Hewitt, Auburndale, Arpin, Sherry/Milladore, and Richfield. Several other departments were invited but unable to attend. The departments, and each individual service provider, were given a gift bag including items such as: gift certificates, personal items, and treats.
