2001 Stony Hill EMS Volunteers receive their first official EMS gear. The big reason? We have many night time calls, when the tone goes out time is of essence. 911 dispatch two members to the scene in their personal vehicles. It’s late at night and a stranger comes to your door dressed in just normal street clothes, This could be extremely frighting to the home owner. It is very comforting to see a person in a uniform you can trust. It tells them we are a professional organization and there to render aide.
Fire education at the fire house. Your future FF.
