May 24th West Hanover Volunteer Fire Company 36 members were at HACC for Live Fire Training. Fire Company members meet weekly for different trainings. The first Tuesday of each month is their company meeting night. The rest of the Tuesday nights they train. It can be live fire trainings such as pictured or if they are lucky they have a car donated to the company that they can use for training for different crash scenarios.
If you are interested in knowing more about what our members do or becoming a member, stop by any Tuesday evening.

When you have most of your ducks in a row, but you have one stubborn little bugger who just won't listen, you use some non-conventional ways to line them up.
May 22 at11:30am West Hanover Township Fire Company 36 was dispatched for a service call on Schaffner Drive. When crews arrived they found several ducklings stuck in a storm drain. Most of the ducklings were able to be retrieved from one end of the pipe, but one stubborn little duckling refused to come out.
