Some Newton Falls residents may hear blast noises Wednesday, Thursday

Residents in Newton Falls who live near the Camp James A. Garfield Joint Military Training Center may notice an increase in blast noises for the next couple of days.

That's because the training center will be conducting training between Wednesday, September 18 and Thursday, September 19 that will involve the use of hand grenades.

There will be intermittent gunfire and explosions at the facility during this time.

Sounds from the explosions may be heard farther away than what occurs during normal business operations. 

Camp James A. Garfield's annual training season usually runs through September.
