Unmistakably GPRA - the specially chosen red, white and blue color palette at our new HQ is really standing out as construction continues. This color scheme was chosen to match our famous livery. The color scheme is patriotic 🇺🇸timeless 🕰️ and stands out 🫡 - just like the GPRA 😉

Our day tour crews had a special treat for lunch today thanks to Mission BBQ and Laflin Fire Department. Mission put on a full course lunch at the Laflin fire station and we were grateful for the invite along with City of Pittston Bureau of Fire and Jenkins Township Fire Dept. crews. Thanks to all for the food and camaraderie!

This weekend, we pause to remember the sacrifice of City of Pittston Bureau of Fire Captain John Lombardo, who perished in the line of duty fighting a large commercial fire on North Main Street on March 15, 1993.

At the time of his passing, John served as a “Co-Captain” in our organization, essentially the equivalent of the rank of Assistant Chief under our current ranking structure. John was a loyal and dedicated member of organization who bled the red, white and blue. We know that he would be immensely proud of the progress and advancement of our organization over the years.

He is remembered with a rose and his initials on every GPRA unit.

The GPRA brings a special spirit and pride to everything we do and nothing shows that better than the Pittston St. Pat’s parade. The kick off to special event season, our members were out in force making sure all paradegoers (and post-parade partiers) were well protected! ☘️

Special thanks to GPRA member Bob Price for his 📸capturing GPRA units doing our thing!

The new GPRA HQ is really starting to take shape and we can begin to get a feel for the layout. As you can see, there will be three bay doors with 5, double deep lanes for our units. This will allow us to station up to 10 units at this facility. It is not the intent that our entire fleet will be housed at HQ. We will continue to operate our West Station in Exeter, and an additional unit will operate out of Avoca Fire Department
