Yesterday our crews aided fire departments in Union County for a challenging structure fire. We appreciate the trust of our neighbors for these incidents and our thoughts are with the victims of the fire and we are glad there were no injuries from the fire or extinguishment efforts.
Good morning Delaware County.
We captured this while wrapping up at an early morning scene this morning. We hope everyone has a great Sunday!

Today we want to recognize our outstanding and dedicated honor guard. Our team had the distinct privilege to participate in the funeral arrangement for two separate public safety deaths in this past week. This team works exceptionally hard to practice and perfect their craft so that they can provide the utmost honor and respect to our fallen public safety partners. Our team collaborates and works closely with other teams including @ohiolastteam and we thank them all for their dedication and commitment.
This past Saturday was Ohio’s Biggest and Best Touch a Truck at @olentangylocalschools @olentangyberlinhigh, sponsored by Delaware County EMS, Berlin Township Fire Department , The CBUS Media Group (@sunny95wsny ) and benefiting People In Need @pin_delaware
By the numbers we had:
Over 6,000 people in attendance
over 100 vehicles on display
Countless adults and kids trained in Hands Only CPR and Bleeding Control
2 horses!
1 @medflightofohio helicopter that made it despite morning fog
Over 800 pounds of food and 7 box fans donated to People in Need.
This has grown to an amazing community event and we cannot do it without the support of our community partners who come through for us year after year.
Thank you all and we hope everyone has a great rest of the summer.
