A fire in Baileys Harbor completely destroyed a workshop on Kangaroo Beach Road Monday morning near Logerquist Road, with seven local fire departments responding to it. Baileys Harbor Fire Chief Brian Zak says at about 8:30 a.m., the property owner had started a fire in a wood stove and went back to the house to get a cup of coffee,. By the time he returned to the workshop, the whole north end of the structure was fully engulfed in flames.
Zak adds that the 30-foot by 50-foot building and its contents are a total loss. Over 7,000 gallons of water and 10 gallons of foam were used to extinguish the fire. Baileys Harbor Fire Department received mutual aid assistance from Sister Bay/Liberty Grove, Egg Harbor, Ephraim, Jacksonport, Gibraltar, and Sturgeon Bay.
