We have 138 trees left for this weekend! We expect it to be another busy weekend with nice weather and two weeks until Christmas. Come get yours early, we don’t know if they’ll last until Monday! 
You guys are the best!! I live in Mechanicsburg and my mom lives in Colonial Park. She always gets her Christmas trees from you. They are awesome and we always have loved them. I used to get mine there too before I became allergic to real trees a couple years ago :-( this year she turned 82 and before this she could always run circles around me. She's had a couple Health setbacks this year and when she came to get her Christmas tree a week ago you guys brought it home for her and set it up inside. Thank you so much from Sandy Frantz and I. 🎄❤ Merry Christmas to you and your families! Earlier tonight a firehouse humor post was made in jest about a magnet taken from the front of Rescue 33. The magnet was removed on the evening of October 5 during fall fest. We’re sure it was done in typical firehouse humor as was our post was. 
Damn I was gonna come help if you foamed may or may not have some experience! On a serious note this day an age is a no fun zone Many moons ago in the bureau O fire a certain Garfield with only 3 suction cups made his way around the world. Oh the many photos that would make their way to a particular skook address...Hawaii with hula girls, IAFF conventions and many many distant lands. So yes good fun can be had even in today’s fire service. A lot of guilty consciences on the last post.. How did I miss the original post ☹️ ❄️❄️❄️ Mark Bradnick Matthew Schue your guys need to read about the foaming part lol Get some old rotgut protein foam and blanket the front of the station and the ramps We are often asked by the public what we do during the slow times. The short answer....at any given point throughout the day you can find crews training and bettering themselves to better serve you.  Last evening crews from Colonial Park, Paxtonia 34 Fire Company, Linglestown Fire Company No. 1 - Station 35, and South Central EMS Harrisburg joined Lower Paxton Township Police Department for the annual Heroes and Helpers event at Target Store Harrisburg-North. crews spent the evening helping kids shop for Christmas and wrap presents for their families. Each kid go to be escorted by a fire, police, or EMS official for their shopping. Thanks to LPPD for putting the event together each year and inviting us! 
Thank you for doing this amazing event for the kids!! That is awesome! Thank you! Thank you so much!! Ya'all are AWESOME!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! Great work guys and gals!! Truly and honestly appreciated! But I have to ask.. if ya’ll are in there, who is out there to make sure MARS towing isn’t speeding all over town? That’s awesome! Thank you 💙🖤🇺🇸❤️ Ya gotta love our Colonal Park community... Thank u! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Way to go More Christmas Trees arrived yesterday from Buck Run Evergreen Farms for a busy weekend! Come get your tree today and donate blood for the annual Russ “Pop” Knapp blood Drive in our parking lot!  We found him! Santa just parked his sled and jumped on Ladder 33 for a ride over to the Friendship Center/ Lower Paxton Township Parks & Recreation in Lower Paxton Township! We asked for some gifts for Christmas including our final drawing of the new Seagrave Fire Apparatus 95’ Aerialscope! Hopefully he leaves it in our stocking!  Last evening, Southside crews ran the second fire in 24 hours. Crews were dispatched to the 3900 block of Jonestown Road for a report or a fire reported out. Engine, Ladder, Squad, and Traffic 33 responded. Engine 33 arrived with their own water and smoke blowing across Jonestown Road. Crews located a car fire on a lift in the auto shop with workers trying to actively extinguish it. Ladder 33 setup for roof operations but were waved off with fire contained to the car. Ventilation was provided to multiple businesses in the strip before units returned available.  Christmas came early at the Southside courtesy of Elkhart Brass and UPS who dropped off our standpipe kit.  Colonial Park Units just cleared a porch fire on Fresno Drive. At 350 this morning an alert neighbor saw a fire to the rear of his house and called 911. That alert neighbor and a fast response enabled the homeowner to return to their home after the fire with minor water and smoke damage to the interior. Units were assisted by Paxtonia 34 Fire Company and Linglestown Fire Company No. 1 - Station 35. The fire was extinguished with one line and some overhaul. 
wow, great job! thank heaven they kept their house with minor damage. John Whiston WOW GLAD THEY DIDN'T LOSE THEIR HOME ! Nina Weaver that sound was my phone going off Yesterday on Thanksgiving, the Colonial Park Fire Company was dispatched to eight emergencies from 650 in the morning through 1030 in the evening. These calls ranged from fire alarms to wires down due to the wind, and brush fires. The last call at 1030 was a house fire in Forest Hills mutual aid to Linglestown Fire Company No. 1 - Station 35. That house fire went until 1AM this morning with 35 volunteers from Paxtonia 34 Fire Company, Progress Fire 32, Rescue Fire Company #37, Hershey Volunteer Fire Company, and West Hanover Fire. 
It was a busy, windy day for our local firefighters! Stay safe this winter! Thankful for your service to those families that needed it! But I would reconsider posting a picture of their addresses on your Facebook page 😉 Thank you for your service. Thank you! THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE TO ANSWER THE CALLS ! |
