Today we were honored to welcome District Chief Ed Thomas (ret) back to Green Township to learn about his experience during the events of September 11, 2001. DC Thomas is a member of the elite Ohio Task Force 1, and they were one of the first FEMA rescue teams to arrive in NYC after the collapse of the WTC towers. We are thankful for Ed's service to our great nation, and like him, we vow to never forget September 11, 2001.

We are saddened to announce the passing of our former long time office secretary, Leslie Knapp. Lt Mike Nie (ret) said it best, remarking "Leslie was like a bonus mom or grandma. When we would stop by with our kids, she was the nice lady who gave them candy and talked to them." She was that, and so much more, starting as a volunteer firefighter / EMT in the 1970's, and working here in the office well into her 80's before retiring in 2017.

Services are this Friday, September 11, 2026 at Our Lady of the Visitation Church on South Rd. The layout is at 08:30 followed by Mass at 10:00.

Godspeed, Leslie. We are better because you were in our lives. We'll see you later, Love!

At a recent CERT meeting, we ackowledged Betty Lee for 18 years of volunteer service to Green Township. Betty is hanging it up, and can be seen standing next to retired CERT leader, Mike Scherer (blue shirt). Thank you, Betty! And thank you to Mike Scherer for your efforts in training up our civilians.

Our Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) is currently accepting new members. CERT members are called into action in the event of a major emergency, such as a tornado or other mass casualty event to assist emergency responders with logistical needs. They are trained in CPR, first aid / triage, and how to function within NIMS (National Incident Management System). They can also be seen at community events such as Open Houses, dishing out hot dogs, chili, and refreshments!

Drills are held quarterly on Tuesday evenings. If you're a Green Township resident and would like to join our CERT, please email Firefighter Griffin Kain, [email protected].
