This afternoon, your dedicated volunteers handled two calls back-to-back
By Wallkill Hook, Ladder and Hose Co.
August 18, 2026
The first call was for a motor vehicle accident with minor injuries. While responding, members were dispatched for a tree and wires down with a smoke condition in a wooded area, which resulted in a small brush fire. We were assisted by the Pine Bush Fire Department, who responded with their brush truck and UTV to help access the area and extinguish the fire once Central Hudson confirmed the power was cut to the wire.
Thank you to Pine Bush Fire Department for the assistance and great teamwork! 🚒🔥
Two calls, two different incidents, one job — serving our community.
