Washington Hook and Ladder's Fire Truck Being Removed

The Washington Hook and Ladder, Mahanoy City, is reporting on their Facebook page that at 9AM, Wednesday, September 18, they will be removing their chard fire truck from their firehouse.

On the morning of Saturday, August 24th, their fire house caught and destroyed their aerial truck.  This was also the morning of the 2013 Firemen's Convention that also took place in the borough.

Since then they've received an outpouring of donations from the borough and surrounding areas.

Help is even coming as far as Lackawanna County where it's been said that a department is to donate an aerial truck to them.
