Grill Fire Prompts Warning About Turning Off Gas

Firefighters responded to a grill fire Friday afternoon in the 2400 block of Coach House Drive.

Brookfield firefighters helped put out a grill fire outside a home in the 2400 block of Coach House Drive about 4:30 p.m. Friday. The homeowner was trying to knock the flames down with a garden hose, fire officials said Monday.

Fire Chief Charlie Myers urged residents to turn off not only the grill but also the gas supply — either at the propane tank or the gas outlet from the house.

Over the past several years, there have been several youth from throughout the world who haveRead More attended high school for one academic year in the Elmbrook School District through the Rotary youth exchange program. It is a tremendous opportunity for growth by the young adult, as well as the host family! If you have even the slightest bit of interest, I'd encourage you to contact Bill Petterson from the Elmbrook Rotary. It's a long-standing international program with many checks and balances so the experience is beneficial for all concerned.

We hosted a high school girl from Thailand three years ago and we continue that friendship with herRead More and her family. Not only do you, as a host family give a young person from another country a better understanding of America and Americans, but you learn about the perspectives and viewpoints of people from a totally different culture. It opens up our world view. If you have never hosted, do it!

I believe your first 4 words. After that your credibilty dramatically falls off. The only "beatRead More down" received was by the middle & low income class of Wisconsinites. "As governor, I will sign legislation to prohibit the members of the State Legislature from voting after 10:00 at night or before 9:00 in the morning. This commonsense reform ensures the public has the opportunity to contact elected representatives about their votes on any pending legislation important to them. I have two teenagers and I tell them that nothing good happens after midnight. That's even more true in politics. The people of Wisconsin deserve to know what their elected leaders are voting on." --Scott Walker

Cry more. The temper tantrum never ends. I hear Illinois has a few hotel rooms you guys can bunkerRead More down in while you hold drum circles. Walker to sign low and middle class tax cuts. Oh what a beat down.
