Working Fire: 100-blk of Ardmore Ave.

 April 18, 2016

Just after 2 am this morning, Company 20 was dispatched on the 2nd alarm to a working house fire on the 100-blk of Ardmore Ave. in Company 26’s (Highland Park) first due. As 20’s units were responding, first in crews went to a defensive attack on a fully involved single family dwelling. Engine 20-3 established a water supply and put master streams in service from the rear yard of a home on Lynn Blvd. Crews were on scene well into the morning hours, bringing the fire under control. Thank you to Sharon Hill Fire Co. & Glenolden Fire Co. for covering our station while we were operating at the fire.

Please come down my street, Santa does not come anymore! 800 block of Irvington...PLEASE!

Can we blow the horn to let us know he is coming? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜œ

Rumor has it that Santa likes Fireball? Can you confirm?

Where does it begin and end

Its a shame the rest of Drexel Hill doesn't have a santa of the same caliber. πŸ˜” I was horrified at what came down our street last year.

Thank you- we look forward to this every year!😊

My very favorite local Christmas Tradition! Thank you Garrettford-Drexel Hill Fire Company!

I can't wait! One of my favorite traditions Drexel Hill has to offer! Seeing Santa on that fire truck even at 21 years old makes it feel more like Christmas! Happy Holidays and thank you for your service! <3

Thank you all for your service. Your neighbors across the street will be there!

I really miss this. This isn't done in Delaware.

Thank you all!

Thanks, I’ll mark my calendar!

Come over to S Harwood and visit us!!!!

I believe it was 1980. I am the only original left still faithfully going every year.

We can do without the sirens (kidding of course)

My former dog Gus loved this special day. Great tradition.

On the calendar!

It is good to see this continues. Now, GDH, a trivia question for you. When did this tradition start? (as the music from Jeopardy plays)

My Santa Baby will be ready

Rich Luongo. Anita Luongo is this the one that comes by the house?

Will there be a party for the kids this year?
