I work for a local township, was out cutting grass and responded to a person struck with a 16’ batwing mower. Top speed of 20mph. Was only a mile away from the call. Was the longest responses my life.

Can't keep up with an amish scooter though.

Could be worse, I'm pretty sure there are some stations that have members show up on non motorized scooters

We just passed by the firehouse.. my daughter thot they were racing...lol. Hope everyone is safe at the fire call.

Easier to park in the shade

that certainly different

This past Monday evening, 15 volunteers from 55 attended a Line Safety Demonstration that was presented by PPL Electric Utilities, and was hosted by Blue Rock Fire Rescue, at their Millersville station. PPL personnel travel throughout their service area, demonstrating the hazards of working around their equipment and lines. This was a great opportunity for some of our younger members, who had never been to an electrical safety presentation, and was a good refresher for some of our more experienced people. Thanks to 90 for opening this up to their neighboring companies.

Photo is not from Monday's demo, however it is from a similar demo at another location. ... See MoreSee Less
