Tomorrow makes a week that our District’s 3 new hires have been on the job. In that past week they have been answering calls, doing smoke inspections, and doing business inspections. In between all of this, they have been training, from throwing ladders, to driver training, ranger training, and wildfire training. As usual, the training never stops.

This hiring has been special as two of our new hires come from here in town from Hillsborough Twp Station 37 Fire. They have set forth to dedicate their time into taking hours worth of classes to turn their knowledge into helping their community. Tomorrow night all of our new hires get officially sworn in as career firefighters. Join us at 7 p.m at the Hillsborough Municipal Building to congratulate our oncoming firefighters.

"A beautiful colorful rainbow could not exist if it were not for the rain of a grey day - it was born from the very droplets of it."
Author unknown

Yesterday we had a visitor stop in to make a donation on behalf of Shobha Contractor, a loving wife and mother who tragically lost her life on March 5, 2021 which Hillsborough Firefighters responded to. Since this tragedy, the Contractor family had put together a memorial fund so that her legacy can live on. The mission is to annually fund scholarships for 2 Hillsborough High School students, as well as other charities in Shobha’s name. We are grateful to be in the Contractor’s family thoughts as they are in ours.

Some food for thought as we’ve wrapped up Firefighter Cancer Awareness Month. Health issues often take a toll on your mental health, whether it’s a financial burden, or the stress of all the Doctor’s visits. We, especially, as First Responders want to always ensure our health is taken care of. Do you also take care of your mental health? People often make annual check up appointments with their primary doctors and cardiologists, what about seeking a therapist or reaching out for some type of therapy? We always want to remember, this is a Firehouse, and we all become like a big family. Reach out and speak out. #mentalhealthawareness #firefightercancersupportnetwork #firefightercancerawareness #fightthestigma #itsokaynottobeokay ... See MoreSee Less
