On Monday May 25th, Memorial Day, it was business as usual around the Firehouse. In the morning, several Township units met for breakfast following an AFA in Station 211s(So. Manheim Twp) district. During the day the Eden Volunteers responded to four fire incidents and a medical local.

In addition, crews held two training sessions during the day. FF Dain Yakich and FF Sam Clark held a refresher on stokes basket operations. Crews utilized the aerial on Truck 24 to perform a high-angle stokes removal from a roof top.

Following an evening cookout, Truck 24 met up with Company 211. Southern had several pump operators and driver trainees who wanted to practice supplying the Tiller's elevated master stream. This was a great refresher for both companies.
