## Resource

A fierce fire tore through Wrangell’s Marine Bar building on Tuesday, September 15th, waking the town just after 3 AM and forcing nearly nine hours of heroic firefighting. The blaze destroyed much of the roof and sent smoke across the community, but no injuries were reported — a miracle thanks to swift action by the Wrangell Volunteer Fire Department. The building, which also housed Hungry Beaver Pizza and apartments, became a focal point for both loss and unity: neighbors rallied with food, schools kept kids indoors, and libraries opened as shelters. Owners and staff thanked responders publicly — even mentioning a safe pet escape — while asking for privacy as they rebuild. In this small town, the fire’s impact rippled beyond bricks and smoke, threatening livelihoods and housing, yet resilience shone through in an outpouring of support that reminded everyone how deeply connected Wrangell truly is.
