🚨Two mutual aid fires🚨

Chief 4 arrived to find a barn well involved off of Indian Lane. Engine 8 was assigned to a fill site at the Old Fort Sheetz to fill tankers while Tanker 8 supplied water to the scene. Units operated until approximately 230am.

Congrats Marc on this well-deserved recognition!

Congrats to this week’s Hoppy Valley Hero: Marc Burns of Pleasant Gap 💚

"Marc selflessly volunteers with the Pleasant Gap Fire Department and EMS. He also volunteers with the local boyscout troop, Bellefonte Cross Country and Track & Field. He does all of this with a smile on his face. Marc will help anyone at anytime and he deserves to be recognized for all he does in his “spare” time.
Oh, and he does all this while working a full-time position at Penn State and teaching a college course in IT!"

Thank you to Kathryn's for the delicious food and thank you to Reliance Bank, Plum Pristine Clean, Karch Landscaping & Excavating LLC, PBCI-Allen Mechanical & Electrical, and Karch Auto for making our Happy Valley Heroes giveaway possible!
