A Thanks To Mahopac Fire Department

10 posts in this topic

I would just like to reach out and thank our brothers and sisters involved in bringing and letting us have their 1977 Oren. The Mahopac fire department generously donated the rig to our department, Sharon Fire Department. We have been struggling to keep our apparatus running and operating, it is a huge relief that we now know we have neighbors(could be far) that would do such a thing. I am sure, from what i heard, it will serve us great. I was sent a photo via email early this morning of it about to leave it's quarters for the last time. Now, ofcourse it made us happy, but we feel for their department for a loss, a loss because that engine served them well, we all know how they will miss it.

Again a very big thank you to everyone involved in making this occur, as it is greatly appreciated by us. They even lettered it for us too. We should be expecting the rig within a day or so. Then go from there.

Good luck! I like to see departments donating their trucks to departments in need HERE instead of other countries.

Agreed!

And thanks to AFD227 for sharing this awesome gesture with us here.

(P.S I let a couple of Mahopac FD folks that don't view the site, know about this thread, they were pleased to hear about it)
