Summit Volunteer First Aid Squad

Summit Volunteer First Aid Squad “Neighbors helping neighbors since 1962” We render aid and assistance to over 22,000 people in Summit. We respond to more than 2,300 emergency calls each year.

This past Friday was our squad’s annual dinner. Here, we take the time to thank all of our squad members, past and present, as we would not exist without our volunteers! We also recognize those who go above and beyond in their work—whether that’s holding a leadership position or number of years served. Thank you all!

Also, many thanks to Chatham Emergency Squad, Inc for covering our town for the night so all of our members could enjoy this evening!
