URGENT PUBLIC SAFETY MESSAGE FROM AUDUBON FIRE DEPARTMENT. 💥 🇺🇸 🚒

Please read, share and advise all those not on social media to keep our community safe.

With the 4th of July approaching, we have a few things we would like to address for the safety of yourself and others.

During the fireworks display, streets around the high school will be closed due to the anticipated crowd. Please do not drive around traffic cones or any emergency vehicle, they are there for a reason. You can contact Audubon Police Department for a list of the road closures.

It should also be noted that there is to be absolutely NO FOOT TRAFFIC on the track at the rear of the high school. Any gate that is locked or marked with caution tape is not to be used for access.

If you need to get to the football stadium you can access it by the normal entrance on Walnut St.

If you would like to watch from the tennis courts, you can access them from Mansion and Hampshire Avenues.

Please do not use the driveway at the end of the high school to access the rear of the building, or the walkway towards the track on Edgewood Avenue.

When the firework display is finished, we ask you to exit in the same fashion while we check the fields for any un-detonated shells.

Additionally, if you live around the area of the high school, there is a chance embers may end up on your property, depending on the wind speed and direction. We ask you to be mindful of this and check to ensure it isn’t still burning.

If anyone is to find any un-detonated shells that may have went airborne during the show on their property, PLEASE do not touch it, clear the area, and call 911. If you’re not sure what foreign object may have landed on your property, call 911 and we will check it out for you.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation, and we hope everyone has a great holiday.

-The Officers and Members of the Audubon Fire Department

The Mayor and Commissioners welcomed a new business, GK Salon, to town last month with a ribbon cutting ceremony.
