[quote name='njjimmy' post='29102' date='Sep 2 2006, 01:07 ']Here's a fire department I've never heard of before! The Butler Park Fire Company runs out of Mansfield Twsp. You may have seen their members in action shots of the large fire in Washington Boro on the 1st Responder website. Here is a 4x4 Navistar/Superior rig. Andrew Heiss, photo.[/quote]
I've heard of them and being from Butler in Morris County, about 40 miles northeast, I can say that over the years I've personally sent them invitations to various events that we've hosted such as anniversasry parades and wetdowns but never have heard anything. Several times I mailed them our annual calendar simply asking to let me know if they got it and no reply came back.
Back in the days befoer 9-1-1, when many emergency phone calls were made by people simply dialing Operator, our dispatchers including myself erroneously received a few for Butler Park, which is actually a section of Warren County's Washington Township according to the area postmaster and guys in the Washington Borough Fire Department which is close to Butler Park. One memborable call to our PD was received by one of the older dispatchers who is now deceased. The report was of a building on fire in Butler Park, then the caller said that the fire truck had arrived. Since we have 2 acre park in the center of town called Butler Park and our public works crews were then decorating it for Christmas that included a temporary Santa Claus house, and most of those workers were also firemen, the dispatcher simply radioed on the dpw radio to ask if they were putting out a fire in the park but they were not. BTW, in those days the phone operators didn't even caller id yet.
