I was at my family s cabin in Wisconsin when the Chemtool Fire took place in Rockton, but I remember waking up that Monday morning and being glued to social media all day for the latest updates. I have several friends that live in the Rockton area, I know several firefighters that were on location at the blaze, and my sister-in-law was on location covering it for the Winnebago County Sheriff s Department. Needless to say, I was worried about all of them.
Rockford-area residents may not have to deal with the debris from the fire, but the billow of smoke effected, and was seen, throughout the region. The Chemtool fire became a national story, and that is one of the reasons a group of Rockton-area residents want to create a historical record, using our photos, to show just how far-reaching the effects of the fire really were.
