What a difference of this site from August 2018 until flyover today. Lots of labor for the Wilkes-Barre Area School District but well worth it. Best of luck to the students on their first day at their new high school this week. Plains Proud!

As you settle down tonight for bed, remember that, on this night...19 years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning tomorrow. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives. None of them saw past 10:00 am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same.

As you live and enjoy the breaths you take today and tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.
Never forget. 🇺🇸

We would like to thank Amp Global Strategies for the donation of a ballistic pop shield to our organization.

In today’s trying and dangerous times, tools such as this are becoming more of a necessity.

Thank you for your generosity to our staff and volunteers.

A huge thank you needs to go out Michael’s restaurant from River st. in Plains. They donated a buffet of food for the on duty crews today. Thank you for the generosity! Plains proud!

One of our biggest supporters in the community is hands down the Plains Lions Club. Year after year they support our organization effortlessly. Without the support of civic organizations and our communities, we wouldn’t be where we are today. Thank you!!

Accepting the donation on behalf of the ambulance association is Paramedic Triscia Lathrop and EMT Christopher Lathrop.

We are humbled by the generosity we received today. First, we were delivered cookies by Wilkes-Barre General Hospital. Secondly, the Koch family donated and delivered an amazing dinner for our on duty crews. Thank you for supporting us, not only during EMS week, but everyday!

Happy EMS week to all of our staff and volunteers, as well as all of our colleagues and organizations who are affiliated with us. Your service is appreciated and second to none. Stay safe and keep up the good fight.
