In the late afternoon Oradell units were dispatched for a possible brush fire in the Oradell Reservoir area.  At the same time Haworth units were receiving calls and being dispatched as well.  Haworth units located the fire on their side of the water off of Lake Shore Drive.  The fire was deep into the United Water property around the Reservoir and required several Engines and a Drafting operation for water supply.  Oradell Car 20, 201 and Engine 24 responded to assist Haworth and other agencies.  Oradell Engine 24 was deep into the woods being supplied by Haworth Engine 162 which was drafting.  Units operated about 3 hours due to the location and amount of area that had burned.

The Sluggers pulled out another win today against Mahwah FD, winning 14 to 10.  Although our Star First Baseman was not there, the sluggers took the lead early and held on for the win.  Coach Moretti stated "knowing the game locations and time is the most important part of any game!"
