While units were returning to quarters from the Beaver Ave. call, company 5 was dispatched to assist Port Matilda with a barn fire.

 The call originated as a Blair County box, however, upon arrival of Blair County units it was discovered that it was actually in Centre County, which made it a Port Matilda box.  The barn was a complete loss.  Units were on scene cooling hot spots for a couple of hours.  Units that were requested from Company 5 were Engine 514, which set-up a fill site, Tankers 519 (cancelled enroute) and 520, and Truck 516 (also cancelled enroute).
   
 Units on Scene:  Centre County: Engines 1510, 514, 1210, Truck 516, Tanker 1515, 520, 519, 219, 1119, 920, Brush 325, Brush-Tanker 1224, Rescue 1518
