Two Portage firefighters answered a special call for help Thursday. Two ducklings became trapped in a storm drain located on Mallard Circle.

The Cuff and Ladder Fund was created in 2006 by a Public Safety Officer and his wife who saw the need to have resources available for local first responders who became sick, injured or unable to serve their community.
