That’s a wrap on another year at the North Stonington Agricultural Fair, Inc

Throughout the weekend, NSAA staffed two ambulances—one dedicated exclusively to the fair and one that remained available to respond to emergencies throughout the rest of North Stonington.

A big thank you to all of the volunteers who make the fair possible, everyone who came out to enjoy it, the North Stonington Volunteer Fire Company and our crews for helping keep the fair safe and providing care whenever it was needed.

To end the week with a little fun (and from a little too much time in the sun), enjoy some AI-generated photos of our crew enjoying all the fair has to offer.

Once again this year, North Stonington Ambulance was proud to host not one, but two Wheeler High School seniors for their Senior Project experience!

Over the past several months , Kylie and Jordan have spent time learning about EMS operations, observing emergency medical care, and gaining insight into the world of EMS. Their enthusiasm, professionalism, and willingness to learn made them a pleasure to have with us.

The senior project is a Wheeler High School tradition, incorporating hours of field work, journal entries, a final paper, and a final presentation.

Congratulations to Jordan & Kylie!
