Lake Placid Volunteer Fire Department
This is a photo from the Fire Department folder in our archives. It isn’t dated, though we think it’s from sometime around the late nineteen fifties or early sixties. We have most of the names of the people in the photo, all except the second man from the right, kneeling in the first row. The names we have are listed below. Do you know the name of the man in the front row, or the year this was taken?
UPDATE: Thank you to everyone who helped name these firefighters! Their names will be updated in our archive.
