• There has been some speculation on the possibility of the Bath Volunteer Fire Department closing. The board held some discussion on how such a closing would effect the district and the fire department. There are pros and cons to taking on a larger area.

The Bath Department will be holding a meeting later this week to decide the fate of the fire department and until then the Groton Fire District will wait to see what is decided.
