The rigs are back in the barn! The volunteers at 55 are proud of our new apparatus bay floor. The crew did a great job. A few of our members have been working hard over the past two days, getting the gear racks back together, the bathroom back in order, along with some other incidental items.

We owe a great deal of thanks to our community for their support of our spring capital fund drive, that was earmarked for this long overdue project. We welcome community members to stop by and see the remodeled engine room. The floor was the last stage of a multi year project that included new energy efficienct LED lighting, turnout gear racks, and re painting. ... See MoreSee Less

New Danville FC was alerted to a tree down on Marticville road between W Penn Grant Road and Baumgardner Road.

On arrival, crews found a large tree across the roadway which had been struck by a car. No one was injured. The crew went to work using chainsaws to cut up the tree and remove it from the roadway.

NDFC thanks the volunteer firefighter from Montgomery County who came upon the incident and helped clear the debris. Also a big thanks to Jim from A&J Towing who pulled the bulk of the heavy trunk off the roadway and to an area resident who used his tractor to push the trunk off the road. Thanks also to West Willow and New Danville Fire Police for controlling traffic at the scene.

It has been a busy August thus far for the 55 House.
