Eastern Berks Fire Joins Others to Assist Kentucky Fire Department

 December 18, 2021

Eastern Berks Fire joined with other area departments to send much needed assistance to the Mayfield Fire Department in Kentucky which was hit hard by the recent tornado outbreak in that state. (See WFMZ video)

Firefighters from EBFD took two loads of extra gear, equipment and supplies to Slatington this week to add to the tractor trailer loads of fire equipment being driven this weekend to Kentucky.

Since the merger of the fire companies in Bally, Barto and Bechtelsville ten years ago, the department found itself with duplicate equipment that was in good condition, but not needed locally. Chief Mike Mutter and President Scott Reidenauer spearheaded the drive to send the supplies to Mayfield which lost their primary fire station. (See article)

Among supplies sent were:
2 PPV Fans
Wire Stokes Basket
20 Helmets
10 Coveralls
12 Gear Bags
6 Scott SCBA with extra bottles
Cord Reel
30 sets of Fire Gear with Boots and Gloves
Floating Strainer
2 Rescue Struts
6 cases of bottle water
10 cases of hand wipes
Porta Power Rescue Tool
3000 gal. Porta Pond
6 Indian Pump Wildfire Tanks

Hope the 2nd raffle goes better. Bechtelsville & Bally community needs to step up and support their local fire company. I just bought two for gift cards. Hope you can sell the rest. 🤞
