The Wolf Den of Heroes continues as we start to reach the end of 2025. We look forward to celebrating a first responder you know before we close out the year. Nominate the first responder in your life today. Each month during the year, The Wolf teams up with Mid Hudson Pump and MHA of Dutchess County to select one of our area's first responders to be inducted into the Wolf Den of Heroes from among everyone who has been nominated to date. 

Putnam Lake Fire Department Member Inducted into Wolf Den of Heroes

This month's honoree has served in a community fire department for over 40 years. He was nominated in June as a Birthday gift by Kaitlyn Wohlfert. She nominated Randall Sant, whom we found out more about this morning when he shared his story with CJ and Jess. Randall, AKA Randy, has been a firefighter since 1980.

He originally joined the Goldens Bridge Fire Department in November of 1980. He now serves in the Putnam Lake Fire Department, where his wife Allison volunteers as well. He told CJ and Jess that it is truly a family thing for them and their kids. He has been both a Chief and an Assistant Chief. Read Kaitlyn's nomination below.

Nomination from Kaitlyn Wohlfert: Randy has been the Chief of the Goldens Bridge Fire Department for years. Then moved to Putnam Valley and continued his journey! He is our family’s hero! Always there for his children and grandchildren! He is always welcoming and doing things for everyone else! He welcomed me into the family with open arms and treats me like one of his own kids! He offers his home to people who need shelter and time to grow! He's only one call away if his friends and family need him! Also, his birthday is in June, and we would love to surprise our hero with this nomination!
