On Thursday July 27th, the Alpha Fire Company participated in Pleasant Gap Fire
Company’s parade (Company 8).  Six members of the honor guard lead tower 516
and engine 510 along the two mile parade route.  In addition to the 10 fire
company members in the parade, Alpha Fire Company Fire Police assisted with
traffic control utilizing 536 and 522.

This is just one of the many carnival based Fire Company parades around central
Pennsylvania that the Alpha Fire Company participates in each year.  It is a
chance for the members of this department to show our support for our brother
fire companies.

Tower 516 won “Best Appearing and/or Equipped Aerial Truck.

This year is especially important for the ‘8 house’.  Next month the Pleasant
Gap Fire Company will be opening its new station located adjacent to their fair
grounds, a building that has been in the planning and design stages for three
decades.

The Pleasant Gap Fire Company is planning a new station dedication in September.
 Watch company 8’s web page (www.fire8.com) for details.
