A very special afternoon yesterday at the Stonington Borough Fire Department celebrating Chief Jeff Hoadley and his incredible 52 years of service, including 35 years as Fire Chief and 10 years as Fire Marshal.
Chief Hoadley dedicated decades of his life to the Stonington Borough Fire Department, and it was clear just how much he means to those who have served alongside him.
Congratulations, Chief Hoadley, and thank you for your many years of service, leadership, and dedication. Wishing you all the best in retirement!
What an incredible Fourth of July! 🇺🇸
There was no better way to celebrate Independence Day and America’s 250th birthday than with thousands of friends, neighbors, and families lining the streets in one of our community’s favorite traditions.
Thank you to Senator Ryan Fazio for joining us today. It was great to spend the afternoon celebrating this historic milestone together.
The turnout was phenomenal, the crowds were full of energy, and the pride on display reminded us just how special our communities are.
Happy Fourth of July, and happy 250th birthday, America! Here’s to celebrating our nation’s past while looking ahead to its future. ❤️🤍💙
