Any other agencies holding an open house for EMS week?

Nice shots!!! Thanks for sharing them! Those are Whelen Pioneers and contain 1 Spotlight and 1 Flood light in each module. While they can be set up to flash, they are generally not used for emergency response lighting. I'm sure they will be adding a NFPA lightbar latter on in the production process, if not already done.

Armonk FD is also having an open house on Sunday May 20th from 12-4pm Facebook event page

Maybe we are talking about 2 different things but Westchester County's Firegroud Freqs are on the Trunked Radio Sysytem.

Thanks! It is still Car 5, just not used everyday.

Thanks Guys! That black GPD Charger is just an unmarked traffic unit, they are not replacing their large fleet with chargers, to my knowledge. What is SO-1 used for anyways? Is it just a command post?

Sounded like a great event, wish I could have gone. Anyway, does anybody have any pictures or videos to share?

Nice shots! Thanks for sharing them!!

Wanted to share some of my photos of The Greenwich Police Departments Open House/Station Day

I have seen them on http://www.auctionsinternational.com/index.htm a lot! However, I guess they are beaten to death and then used for parts since they are listed as "do not start or run". The photos that come with the listing also show them in terrible shape.

The Area I was talking about was Northern Westchester, a majority is covered by a volunteer BLS ambulance and a paid medic in a fly car. A large portion is covered by the 45-Medics (Westchester EMS). This tread (45 Medics - Are 3 enough?) is filled with statistics about the 45-Medics. Some of the questions you have asked are answered there. Others are not available.
