		<title>Adopt A Hydrant</title>
		<link>https://www.ashlandfire.com/188</link>
		<pubDate>Sat, 6 Jan 2024 12:28 -0500</pubDate>
		<description>Adopt-a-Hydrant is a program created to help the Ashland Fire Department keep fire hydrants free of snow during the winter season. 

Upon arriving at the scene of a fire, firefighters need to immediately locate and gain access to the closest fire hydrant. Crucial time is lost if they must first shovel away the snow. When every minute counts, it would be extremely advantageous if the hydrants could be cleared ahead of time.

Residents can &quot;adopt&quot; one or more of the 1,100 fire hydrants as an individual or with a group or business.
