| While we did explore potential repairs of the truck the cost and out of service time would have been less than ideal. Due to the unforeseen failure the officers and members decided to move forward with a replacement engine that could be in service and operational in a short period of time. As of today at 15:00 our new Engine 25 went into service. This truck is a 1989 Sutphen with 1000 gallons of water and a 1500 gpm pump that previously served Beach Lake, PA since they purchased it brand new. There will still be some equipment mounting and decals that need to be done, but otherwise Engine 25 is officially back in service!!
A special thank you to Jessup Hose Co. #1 for loaning us Engine 31 while we navigated this tough decision.
On behalf of all of our members, we sincerely thank our community for your continued support and trust. Because of you, we are able to overcome challenges like this and continue answering the call—24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Deeds, Not Words |
