Tonight, Fanwood Rescue was dispatched into Fanwood for the report of a structure fire. Both of our rigs responded to the scene. Fanwood Fire Department and Scotch Plains Fire Department were also on scene fighting the fire. Scotch Plains Rescue Squad was also on scene as additional hands. Luckily there were no patients, human or animal!! And Fanwood Rescue just provided rehab for our firefighters!!

Fanwood Rescue was on standby today June 2, 2019 with our friends Garwood First Aid Squad for Garwood Rocks 2019!! It was a beautiful day and so much fun! Thank you to Garwood FAS for inviting us and Mountainside FAS!

Fanwood Rescue joined many others at the Memorial Day Service and the Memorial Day Parade on Monday, May 27, 2019. It was beautiful weather outside for the annual parade honoring those who gave their lives in the name of our freedom. Fanwood Rescue members and their family members turned out for the parade.

This year was very special as we had Ethan and Abigail Breidenstein holding up the rescue squad banner during the parade! Ethan and Abigail are children of Eric Breidenstein, who is a member as well as his mother Recording Secretary Jamie Pedinoff. A tradition was passed down as Jamie’s kids Eric and his sister Allison used to hold the banner during the parades and was passed down to Eric’s children this year!

We appreciate everyone and all our members who came out today in support of Memorial Day and helped us all honor those who have fallen and paid the ultimate sacrifice for all of us and our freedom.

Thank you to the members that came for the Memorial Service and Parade, President Ed Winsor, Recording Secretary Jamie Pedinoff, Corresponding Secretary Lisa Walker, Captain Patricia Buckridee, Sergeant Shreya Kachroo, Training Officer Christina O’Connor, Eric Breidenstein, Jim Drewes, Lily Hsaio, Tyler Zeile, and Rafael Eulalio!
