Lake Harmony Fire Co.

On June 1st, work began on clearing the land to make way for a new firehouse for Lake Harmony Fire Company. This new addition to the community will be built across the street from the current firehouse, and will have the capability to man more equipment and resources to better serve the surrounding community.

On Thursday April 16th, Chief Lennon instructed a class of Webelos from Den 567 on various skills including first aid, water safety, vehicle safety, and other safe practices that assisted the young group in earning their new certification.

The group finished off the night with a quick tour of the engine bays, exploring the apparatus at the firehouse and taking a picture on the soon to depart ladder truck.

During Lake Harmony's last drill night, two Junior Firefighters performed a simulated rescue of a victim in an unknown scenario. With blacked out masks, the two juniors were sent into the fire hall, unaware of what to expect, where firefighters had overturned tables and chairs, and deployed a victim for the two juniors to rescue.

Instead of a regular drill night this past Monday, Lake Harmony had their Chief Engineer teach a class on airbag safety to Lake Harmony, Albrightsville, and Kidder Twp. This class, along with demonstration of an airbag detonating, was beneficial to teach members how to act safely during an MVA to avoid any further injuries from airbag deployment while responders are on the scene.

Own an exclusive part of Lake Harmony Fire Company history by purchasing a new firehouse patch or sweatshirt today! Patches are available for $5, and sweatshirts are available for $20, both can be purchased directly from the firehouse.
