In the month of January, the department responded to 35 calls for service. The department responded to 11 reported building fires as well as one vehicle rescue, and two natural gas responses. Crews were in-service for nearly 21 hours. These calls included mutual aid responses into Abington and Cheltenham Townships. In January we received mutual aid into the borough from companies from Abington, Cheltenham, and Rockledge- for which we are thankful to their members for the assistance provided.
Drill training in the month of January consisted of vehicle stabilization, rapid intervention team protocol review, rapid intervention team equipment practice, and thermal imaging camera use.
