  • Highland-Pierron firefighters receive state Medal of Valor

    May 31, 2011, is a date many in the village of Pierron won’t soon forget. The firefighters of the Highland-Pierron Fire Department remember that night well; they can easily recount the urgency in the dispatcher’s voice as they were paged to the Schmitt family’s house fire as it was reported that four family members were still trapped inside.
