Thunder storms passing through the area brought down wires on Fostertown Rd. at Sterling Way. Station 131 fire police closed Fostertown Rd. until PSE&G arrived to cut power to wires burning on shoulder of roadway. Once hazard was removed the roadway was reopened.

The RV Mutual Aid group sponsored a joint drill at the Fire Training Grounds to improve company relations and give members from all attending stations the opportunity to work with other stations.

The Lumberton Emergency Squad and Fire Dept. hosted the group from Wills for Heroes at station 131. This group of Lawyers provide free legal services such as wills and power of attorney to all first responders. There was a great turnout and everyone appreciated this wonderful service.
