On Tuesday 9/17, the Little Falls Fire Department partnered with the American Red Cross in Minnesota to conduct a smoke alarm installation event. Due to all the wonderful Red Cross volunteers and firefighters that took time to do the event, we installed 124 alarms in 47 homes in Little Falls and the surrounding area. Thank you to everyone that helped make the event a success, with a special thank you to Walmart Little Falls for donating hot food and snacks to feed all the volunteers and to Ace Hardware of Little Falls for donating additional alarms to help with the event.



Homeowners Devon and Meghan Ziegler were presented with an honorary bronze plaque identifying their home as a Century Home in the Century Homes Recognition Program; a program created by the Little Falls Heritage Preservation Commission to honor homes over 100 years old that have retained their historic appearance, and to preserve residential architectural development in the City!

Devon and Meghan Ziegler purchased and restored the historic home at 902 Hillton Road “The Old P.W. Hayes Farm” in December 2023. The home was originally built in 1881 by Patrick W. Hayes, a renowned and well-respected historical figure of the early years of both Little Falls and Morrison County. Hayes, a pioneer and community leader, contributed significantly to the town, including being one of the founders of the Little Falls Fire Department. The Ziegler's have discovered rich history of the home and its previous owner(s) and tenants through extensive research. They aim to preserve the house's legacy and are excited to have received an honorary award for their efforts in restoring this historic property!
