Granny’s Attic’s financial support to health-related organizations was instrumental to the fire department last week when emergency responders assisted an injured woman on the new Dockton mountain bike trails. She had crashed about a mile down the Flying Monkey trail, deep in the woods, according to Assistant Chief Bob Larsen. En route to the scene, he decided to call the district’s Gator — an all-terrain utility vehicle equipped with specialized emergency rescue and firefighting equipment — into service. It was purchased just last year primarily with funds from a Granny’s Attic grant.
