2023.4.14 West Hanover Volunteer Fire Company 36 crews were dispatched for a structure fire in the area of Kiwanis Road at approximately 11:11am. Fire crews arrived on scene to a mulch fire that was extending up the side of the house causing soffit and siding to melt. Crews extinguished the fire and checked to make sure that there was no fire extending into the house. Company 36 was on scene for a half an hour and the box was available at 11:45am.

This is a reminder to everyone that in hot, dry conditions like we've had recently, mulch becomes very flammable.

Last night 4.12.2023, Pennsylvania Forest Fire Warden Crews were requested by DCNR from West Hanover Volunteer Fire Company 36 and Grantville Volunteer Fire Company to assist with a wildland fire in the area of the Appalachian Trail, East of Peters Mountain Road. Crews worked throughout the night to ensure that the fire, which had already been mostly extinguished, would not jump containment lines. Crews were on scene from approximately 6:30pm last night until 3:30am.
Although the terrain was challenging, crews enjoyed a nice night under the stars overlooking the lights of Harrisburg.

That's a bad area to pull out of. Eventho the speed limit is 40 mph people still fly down that part of the road. Not to mention its a blind hill when you're coming out of red top road
