On February 21st, at 12:36, New Manchester VFD responded to a report of multiple individuals submerged in ice at Tomlinson Run State Park. E50 responded within three minutes, followed shortly by Unit S51. Assistance was requested from New Cumberland for personnel support and Chester Volunteer Fire Department for a rescue boat. Upon arrival, bystanders had deployed a boat onto the ice, where two victims were recovered from the water. Both individuals were pulled aboard, and a rope was utilized to pull them to safety. Subsequently, units from Chester and New Cumberland were canceled, although several personnel from New Cumberland responded to assist. HCEMS personnel arrived and provided medical aid, with one patient treated in an ambulance and the other in Unit E50. Both patients had their wet clothing removed and were provided warming treatment, but both refused further medical transport.
Also assisting on scene WVDNR, TRSP Ranger, and HCSD.

WOW what a day‼️
We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the community for the tremendous support shown at our fish fry today, resulting in an early sell-out of fish despite additional orders for shrimp and chicken. We look forward to next week and will be better prepared for the increased volume of fish orders.
