JFD has first female firefighter

Since its formation 125 years ago, the Jamestown Fire Department has never had any female firefighters on its volunteer force. That is, until now. Connie Jenkins, a 1996 graduate of Jamestown College, played basketball and ran track during her college years. She’s now a case manager for South Central Human Services and said she’s excited to be a volunteer firefighter.
