Once again, we are thankful for Leslie Rossi’s support in furthering our mission to provide the best service with the latest equipment for our community.

The Norvelt Volunteer Fire Department now owns some new state-of-the-art rescue equipment, thanks in part to a grant secured through the office of State Rep. Leslie Rossi.

Engine 37-1 and Engine-Rescue 37 responded to assist Mt. Pleasant VFD with a tractor trailer fire on the turnpike. 37 units staged at the gate. Chief 38 then requested the Engine-Rescue to their station for standby. Engine 1’s crew returned to our station to staff it and the rescue.

Today, members of the department, along with the Easter Bunny, visited families in our service area and gave the kids a treat and the four legged friends a dog biscuit. Always glad to give back to the community that supports us so much.

Service, Squad, UTV and Engine all participated in a prescribed burn yesterday evening at Greensburg Sportsmen’s Club. Crews burnt off approximately 46 acres of switch grass on their property and were assisted by Westmoreland County Team 211 Rough Terrain Support Unit. Service, Squad, and UTV crews worked the perimeter of the fields and put out hot spots during mop up to ensure fire didn’t spread to the wood line. Engine 37-1 provided water supply for all the brush units and ATVs on scene. This time was used to train new members on wildland fire behavior and control techniques.

Roof Ventilation Training

Members spent the morning doing some acquired structure training. It’s not very often we get an opportunity to train on actual structures. We were able to do evolutions of forcible entry, roof ventilation, hydro ventilation, and garage door entry.
