The company is in the process of replacing the 1973 Chevy/Darley Pumper/Tanker.  We are in the process of replacing outdated and NON-NFPA complaint equipment to better protect the community we serve and the volunteers who serve it.  The committee has met with KME for the first time to go over preliminary prints.  We are awaiting the updated prints with all the changes we have made.  As we get more information and new prints we will post it.  The new information and prints will be posted under the Apparatus page.

7/1/09 - Medical Assist @ 7500 blk Wertzville Road (Middlesex Twp.)  Utility 34 responded.  While members were on the crash on Landisburg Road we also were called to assist CC Amb 40 with Cardiac Arrest.  Co. 34 went available after patient was transported to the hospital.

7/1/09 - Auto Accident @ 200 Landisburg Road.  Engine 12 responded.  Members arrived to find 1 vehicle in the middle of the roadway with heavy front end damage.  The driver apparently passed out and side swiped one tree and hit another tree head-on.  Members provided patient care until EMS arrived.  Patient was transported to hospital to get checked out.  Members controlled the fluid spill and also directed traffic due to the normal heavy rush hour conditions.  Co. 12 went available after PSP arrived and HJ towing removed vehicle from roadway.   

7/1/09 - Auto Accident @ 159 Pisgah State Road.  Engine 12 responded.  Members arrived to find 1 vehicle into a farmers fence and mailboxes.  There were no injuries and Co. 12 went available.

6/14/09 - House Fire @ 1480 Valley Road (Rye Township).  Engine 12-2 & Tanker 12 responded.  Members arrived and were sent to the manpower pool.  Members helped with overhaul and finding remaining hot spots.  A good knock by Co. 6 (Marysville) members to keep the fire in the room of origin.  Heavy heat and smoke damage to the rest of the second floor with water & smoke damage to the first floor.  Good work by all companies operating on the scene.

6/6/09 - Auto Accident with Entrapment and Fire @ 90 Fox Hollow Road.  Engine 12 responded.  Members arrived to find 1 truck with 3 patients into a tree.  Homeowner used 2 small ABC Extinguisher's to put out the small fire in the dash area.  Members provided patient care until EMS arrived.  2 patients where then transported to Carlisle Airport to meet Life Lion because weather conditions prohibited them from coming into the county.  Members were in the process of making a 3rd door to the pick-up's extended cab to better access the patient in the back when they declared class 4 patient.  Members then closed off the roadway and  waited for PSP to conduct there reconstruction efforts.  Co. 12 went available after PSP finished and Jerry's Towing removed the truck.

PLEASE BE AWARE WHEN IT IS WINDY OUT YOU SHOULD NOT BE BURNING TRASH.  DO TO THE FACT THAT HOT ASHES CAN CARRY IN THE WIND A LONG DISTANCE AND POSSIBLY SPARKING A FIRE.   SO JUST BE A LITTLE EXTRA CAUTIOUS DURING THESE TIMES AND ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS VERY DRY OUTSIDE.  IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE BURNING PLEASE TRY AND HAVE WATER ACCESS CLOSE BY!!  ALSO IF YOU ARE BURNING CALL PERRY COUNTY 911 CENTER AND GIVE THEM YOUR INFO.  CALL THE NON-EMERGENCY NUMBER (717) 582-4311.
