Fairhope Police Officer Needs Help After House Fire Last Night
The Rollins family—Drake, a dedicated police officer and Navy serviceman; Brittany, a stay-at-home mom; and their young son, Scout—recently lost everything when their home was destroyed in a devastating fire. While they are grateful for their safety, they now face the overwhelming task of rebuilding their lives from scratch, needing essentials and temporary housing. Any support through donations or sharing their story would mean the world to them, helping this incredible family get back on their feet and showing them they are not alone in this journey. Click here to help the Rollins family.
Part of The Fairhope Pier is Closed
A note from the Fairhope Police Department — We want to remind you that the section from the marina to the end of the pier will be undergoing handrail replacement as a part of the Working Waterfront Project. 🔧🚧
Beginning this morning, this area will be off-limits for approximately three weeks. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to enhance the pier for everyone’s enjoyment.
