📚🚒 A Day of Learning, Laughter, and Community! 🚒📚

The Lawrence Fire Department was proud to welcome students and teachers from the Lawrence Early Childhood Center for a special visit to the fire station.

From exploring the fire trucks and learning about fire safety to meeting firefighters and seeing how the station operates, the students had an unforgettable experience. Judging by the smiles and excitement, the teachers may have had just as much fun as the kids!

These visits are about more than fire safety—they are about building connections, strengthening community relationships, and showing our youngest residents that the fire station is their home too. Learning, being part of the community, and having fun together are some of the most rewarding parts of our job.

Thank you to the students, teachers, and staff of the Lawrence Early Childhood Center for spending part of your day with us. We loved having you at the station and look forward to seeing you again!

❤️🚒 Serving our community goes beyond responding to emergencies—it’s about being part of the community every day. 🚒❤️

A juzgar por sus sonrisas y entusiasmo, ¡los maestros seguramente se divirtieron tanto como los niños!

Estas visitas van más allá de la seguridad contra incendios: se trata de crear vínculos, fortalecer las relaciones comunitarias y mostrarles a nuestros residentes más pequeños que la estación de bomberos también es su hogar. Aprender, ser parte de la comunidad y divertirnos juntos son algunas de las partes más gratificantes de nuestro trabajo.

Gracias a los estudiantes, maestros y personal del Centro de Educación Infantil de Lawrence por pasar parte de su día con nosotros. ¡Nos encantó tenerlos en la estación y esperamos verlos pronto!

Jacqueline’s Chicken Grand Reopening! 🎉🔥

The Lawrence Fire Department is proud to join our community in celebrating the grand reopening of Jacqueline’s Chicken, a Lawrence institution that has served residents with dedication, hard work, and pride since 1999.

Known throughout the city as “Los Pollitos de la Lowell,” Jacqueline’s became much more than a neighborhood business—it became a gathering place, a local favorite, and a part of the fabric of our community. For generations, families have enjoyed their famous fried chicken and the welcoming atmosphere that made this Lowell Street establishment so special.

Following the devastating fire on October 20, 2025, many wondered how long it would take for this beloved business to return. Today, their reopening stands as a testament to the resilience, determination, and strength of both the owners and the Lawrence community. Their comeback is a reminder that when challenges arise, our city comes together, supports one another, and rebuilds stronger than before.

We are grateful to see the doors open once again and the neighborhood filled with the familiar sights, sounds, and aromas that have been missed by so many.

Congratulations to the entire Jacqueline’s Chicken family on this exciting new chapter. The City of Lawrence is proud to have you back, and we wish you continued success, prosperity, and many more years of serving our community.

Welcome back, Jacqueline’s Chicken—Lawrence is glad to have you home. 🚒❤️🐔

Gran reapertura de Jacqueline’s Chicken! 🎉🔥

El Departamento de Bomberos de Lawrence se enorgullece de unirse a nuestra comunidad para celebrar la gran reapertura de Jacqueline’s Chicken, una institución de Lawrence que ha servido a los residentes con dedicación, esfuerzo y orgullo desde 1999.

Conocido en toda la ciudad como “Los Pollitos de la Lowell”, Jacqueline’s se convirtió en mucho más que un negocio de barrio: se transformó en un punto de encuentro, un favorito local y parte esencial de nuestra comunidad. Durante generaciones, las familias han disfrutado de su famoso pollo frito y del ambiente acogedor que hizo tan especial a este establecimiento de la calle Lowell.

Tras el devastador incendio del 20 de octubre de 2025, muchos se preguntaban cuánto tiempo tardaría este querido negocio en reabrir. Hoy, su reapertura es un testimonio de la resiliencia, la determinación y la fortaleza tanto de los propietarios como de la comunidad de Lawrence. Su regreso nos recuerda que, ante los desafíos, nuestra ciudad se une, se apoya mutuamente y se reconstruye más fuerte que antes.

Nos alegra ver las puertas abiertas de nuevo y el vecindario lleno de las imágenes, sonidos y aromas familiares que tantos hemos extrañado.

Felicitaciones a toda la familia de Jacqueline’s Chicken por esta nueva y emocionante etapa. La ciudad de Lawrence se enorgullece de tenerlos de vuelta y les deseamos mucho éxito, prosperidad y muchos años más al servicio de nuestra comunidad.

¡Bienvenidos de nuevo, Jacqueline’s Chicken! Lawrence se alegra de tenerlos en casa. 🚒❤️🐔

🎉 Happy Birthday to the Lawrence Fire Department! 🎉

On June 12, 1847, the Lawrence Fire Department was established, beginning a proud tradition of service that continues to this day. As we celebrate our department’s birthday, we honor nearly 180 years of dedication, sacrifice, and commitment to the citizens of Lawrence.

For generations, firefighters have answered the call whenever duty demanded—protecting lives, property, and our community through fires, emergencies, natural disasters, and countless other challenges. The Lawrence Fire Department has long been a symbol of strength, service, and reliability for the people we are privileged to serve.

Today, we recognize the hard-working men and women of the Lawrence Fire Department who carry on that legacy. Their professionalism, courage, and unwavering dedication ensure that our community remains safe. Every day, they come to work prepared to answer the call, serving with pride and commitment while continuing the traditions established by those who came before them.

Atlantic season runs from June 1 to November 30. If you have a generator for possible power outages, or if you're thinking of purchasing one, be sure to use it safely. Read and follow the manufacturer's instructions and be aware of the fire, shock, and hazards! Follow our friends at the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) for more hurricane tips.

A quick and coordinated response by Lawrence Fire Department companies prevented a fire from extending in an occupied home situated on a hillside, where challenging access conditions added to the complexity of the incident.

Knowing your district, understanding the terrain, and working together as a team makes all the difference. Through training, experience, and teamwork, crews were able to quickly contain the fire and protect neighboring properties.

Today, the Lawrence Fire Department joined the Lawrence Police Department, Councilor Stephany Infante, Father Paul O’Brien, Principal Lucey, Jose Javier, and Joe Viel at Lawrence Catholic Academy to show our support for the school community.

It was a wonderful afternoon spent with the students and staff. Principal Lucey treated all the children to flavored snow cones, with “Tiger Blood” proving to be the crowd favorite!

Lawrence Catholic Academy is truly a special place, filled with dedicated educators, supportive families, and outstanding students. We are grateful for the opportunity to visit and continue building strong relationships within our community.
