BARN COLLAPSES AND
NEIGHBORS PULL TOGETHER TO RESCUE COWS INSIDE

A barn collapsed under the heavy snow load on Ripley Hill Road around 10 pm. Spafford and Borodino Fire Departments responded, as did
neighbors, and equipment from the Town of Scott. Owners, neighbors, and fire department personnel worked about 3 hours to pull the structure off the cows trapped beneath. Some cows were able to get to their feet, shaking their
heads in confusion. This picture was taken about 8am Sunday, March 7, 2010, by one of the fireman that was on the scene the night before.
