Over the past week, the members of Washington Engine weren’t just busy, they were consistently busy.
Throughout the week, WECO members put in several hours getting the Engine ready for the Ossining FD parade - which ultimately ended up being cancelled.
On Monday evening, we participated in Department training, reviewing the CFD’s boats Marine 12 and Marine 32.
On Tuesday, we helped staff Marine 12 for Croton Police’s “National Night Out” event while also tending to our clean up detail.
In addition to this, we answered 14 calls for service, which included a couple of Motor-Vehicle Accidents, storm-related calls, an oil spill, a dumpster fire and a 4th Alarm fire in Ossining.
On Saturday, following the Ossining job, our members cleaned all 3 apparatus & equipment used, and had our annual Company Picnic. Even though it was a “day of relaxation & rest” for the members, we sent all 3 Company rigs back to Ossining to help extinguish some flare ups at the scene of the prior night’s fire.
We pride ourselves on our ability to always answer the call and are grateful for our membership for all that they do. We also appreciate the help & camaraderie from our friends at Grand Street Firehouse that are there for us when we need them too. (Much love & appareciation to Engine 118 & Columbian Hook & Ladder Co. #1 )
Interested in becoming a part of the ? Stop by the firehouse at the bottom of High Street any Monday evening or anytime you see the doors open to see how you, too, can be a part of our crew!
