There’s a new Station 16 in Jaffrey.
Before this summer, if you were talking about Station 16, it would be the Jaffrey Fire Department you were referring to – that’s the station radio call sign. But now, from April to August, if you mention Station 16, it’s more likely to be referring to a portable ice cream stand that has popped up on Peterborough Street, in place of the former Tyler’s Ice Cream.
The name is no coincidence. Chastity Hodgson and her father, Keith Dupuis, who are partners in the venture along with Chastity’s husband Steven and her mother Leah Dupuis, are long-time members of the Jaffrey Fire Department.
