    Busy days

    The end of June and the opening of July have kept OFD busy with 8 runs in the last 3 days.  Today while investigating an automatic alarm, units found a smoke condition in the home.  Oradell Chief 20 requested River Edge Truck 11 for mutual aid.  Engine 23 had the water supply while units searched for the cause.  After an extensive search, the problem was located by the boiler.  Oradell Fire Department Volunteers remain alert this holiday weekend and wish all of you a safe and happy July 4th.  Special thanks to Brett Dzadik from the Photo Unit for the photos.

    Sluggers win again?

    The OFD Sluggers took on Franklin Lakes FD today and won again.  The game and score stayed tight with a final of 9 to 8.  The Sluggers are now 6 and 2 with one make-up before the playoffs.  Coach Moretti stated "I've been busy searching for a new team headquarters".  Well good luck coach?

    Congratulations !

    This year's Knights of Columbus award winner was FF Joe Scerbo.  Chief Burns presented the award tonight with several other members present.  FF Scerbo has served the Oradell Fire Department for 25 years and has held numerous positions along the way.  He currently holds one of the most important positions; he runs the kitchen with his partner in crime Ex-Chief L. Gangemi.  Thank you Joe for all your hard work, dedication and food.

    OFD Sluggers pull out another win

    The Sluggers took on Maywood FD today and won 9 to 4.  The game was hard fought with both teams defensive plays, making the 100% humidity taste even better.  Coach J. Moretti who watched the game via satellite stated "I was very impressed by J. Kufel and A. Farinella, but I have to go my car just hit a water buffalo".  We hope the damage is minor.  The Sluggers improve to 5 and 2 for the season.

    OFD Slugger Update

    On Sunday the Sluggers played Westwood FD and won 14 to 6.  The Slugger outfielders were kept very busy by the strong hitting Westwood team, but prevailed.  Coach J. Moretti speaking from his Florida retreat stated "the days are long and the nights are cold", then he started to sing a Jimmy Buffet song.  Again I'm not sure where he was going with that.  The Sluggers are now 4 and 2 with three more games in the regular season.
