After a busy last 24 hours the “war wagons” are back in “the barn”! In the last 24 hours we have responded 3 separate times to different emergencies! This is more of an appreciation post for the crew, the ones who were in the woods, the ones working off the “stick”, the ones providing coverage, and especially the ones who brought the snacks! Our jobs would be impossible without the courage and the strive every single one of you have! And to the bosses, the ones you promise 40+ hours a week to, thank you! If it wasn’t for you letting us steal our firefighters when the need arises there would be no one coming. Every single one of us have full-time jobs but with the understanding of our bosses at any given time if the need arises we are coming!

So once again to every single person who made an effort today, you are the bones that hold this skeleton together!

Greenwood forestry trailer, truck 6 and a crew of 5 is working a multi-acre woods fire in Woodstock, E-2 and car 2 are working a chimney fire in Gilead, Greenwood remains covered by mutual aid departments and our own members staffing E1

Update: Chimney fire is extinguished! Car 2, Engine 2 returned to town. E-2, E-1, Car -2 remain staffed in town while additional members remain battling the fire in the woods, which is now 100% contained, just working on hot spots!

We were dispatched to assist Norway fire tonight with a woods fire! Time of tone was 6:06pm, E-4 with the forestry trailer and a crew of 2 was responding at 6:10. That’s 4 minutes to put gear on pull the truck out of the station and hook on the trailer!
We also sent our E-1 with a crew of 2 and 3 other members met us on scene.

We also responding to a fire alarm activation today on Poplar Road in Greenwood, E-2 was on scene with a crew of 2 investigating, 2 minutes after time of being dispatched, luckily no fire!

We can NOT stress this enough! STAFFING MATTERS! Remember this when you see a fire department budget with extra money added for day time station coverage, not 15-20 minutes just to get to the station. Trucks and crews responding or on scene within 5 minutes!

Tonight’s training! Crews from Greenwood and Norway fire did a training tonight focusing on ladders and roof operations. Crews climbed ground ladders, cut a “roof” prop to practice cutting roof vents, and even got to learn all about a tool that we don’t have, a tower truck! Massive thank you to the wonderful crews of Norway Maine Fire Department for sending 2 trucks, and a bunch of people to assist and learn on a short notice! We look forward to doing many more trainings with you all!

Sorry for the delayed post, for those of you not aware Old County Rd is reopen to all traffic!

Over the last 2 weeks we have answered MULTIPLE “in-house” calls. If you are having an emergency PLEASE call 911! Calling us is just an extra step because we will have you call 911 either way!

Calling a dispatch center helps:

- Get all appropriate resources coming
- Ping your phones location giving us ALMOST exact coordinates
- Helps us after the emergency complete our paperwork
- And many more reasons!

Why staffing matters! As crews were working in the office doing their morning paperwork a resident knocked on the door reporting the house acrossed the street had a chimney fire! D.C Goodwin requested a full first alarm from county dispatch bringing Bethel, Woodstock units as well as a tone for Greenwood. E-2 with a crew of 2 was, as a wise man once said “on-scene, going to work” within 2 minutes of dispatch being notified, which is a major accomplishment for small volunteer departments, being short handed fire 2 requested a 2nd alarm bringing in newry and west Paris, which quickly jumped to a third alarm brining Norway fire to the scene! With the help of all units on scene the fire was under control in minutes and crews worked to clean the chimney and return the property back to homeowner

Massive thank you to:

After a quick chat with the railroad company, they are hoping for this afternoon, but possibly tomorrow morning to have Old County Road reopened, due to the rain, the last step is paving the section, they are trying to have it finished around the rainfall today!
Thanks!
