ATR Incident Log 

The Shrewsbury Volunteer Fire Company is proud to be a member of the York County Advanced Technical Rescue Team.  We are one of four departments that comprise the entire team.  The other member departments are the Dover Township Fire Company,Yoe Fire Company and the Hanover Fire Department.

The York Co. ATR Team formed in the mid 1990's to begin a structured approach to technical rescues in York County.  Our department joined the team in 2001.  We have remained active and provide equipment and trained personnel for the team. Many of our station ATR members are certified to NFPA 1006 Pro Board Qualifications for Rescue Technicians in several rescue disciplines.

The York Co. ATR Team trains yearly and responds to rescues in the following disciplines:

  • Building Collapse Rescue
  • Confined Space Rescue
  • Trench Rescue
  • Rope and High Angle Rescue
  • Water Rescue (Swift and Flood)
  • Surface Ice Rescue (Single and Multiple Patient)

When the York County ATR Team is dispatched our department responds with Heavy Rescue 61 and Utility 61.  Certified personnel are first priority for manning the equipment.  Once that is done non-certified personnel can accompany the apparatus and provide "grunt" work at the scene.  We are proud of our participation on the York County Advanced Technical Rescue Team and hope to continue with this for many years to come.

Any questions about our participation on the team or the team in general can be directed to Assistant Chief  Paul W. Anthony (Chief 92-4) panthony@shrewsburyfire.com

Great work! We love and appreciate you guys!

So who needs that many windows? And why don’t the windows on the end of the house line up with the windows on the front of the house?

Those fuel prices burning thru our wallets and our vehicles.

Thanks again to all of you for your service. I continue to be amazed by the number of calls you handle in a year!

It's a Rock-em-Sock-em bumper car day in Shrewsbury today....

Shrewsbury Volunteers are currently operating on 3 separate incidents this morning.

Engine 61-2 and Rescue 61 are on the scene of two different accidents on I83 NB between mile maker 5 and 6. Traffic is backed up to Exit 4. One lane is moving through the two incidents slowly.

Engine 61-1 is handling a vehicle fire in Railroad Borough. While it's a busy day, it's great for our all volunteer department to put three pieces of apparatus on the street serving the area. Hopefully the rest of the day will be quieter...

Shrewsbury Volunteers spent the day prepping for our annual carnival, responding on calls and working with a Squadzilla driver trainee. Today, we worked on backing up.

All in the life of a volunteer fire department.
