As the holiday quickly approaches, we honor and remember all who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedom we sometimes take for granted. May their memories be a blessing and may we all do our best to cherish and support those freedoms today and for the future.

We wanted to send out a big thank you to Hopatcong Police and Hopatcong Fire Department for their help with calls this weekend. Sometimes we face situations where we need some specialized help to get the job done. We are proud to partner with these agencies with their dedication and compassionate care for those in the community. We appreciate you!!

MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU!!! Happy Star Wars Day to all! We have a special use for your Jedi powers - Come volunteer with us and fight the dark side! We may not be able to make the Kessel Run as fast as the Millenium Falcon but with the roads in our area being so bumpy it may feel like it. We provide all the training you need and work around your busy schedule traveling the galaxy. We sponsor qualified members through EMT school to increase their Jedi skills.
