On April 30, we went to Somerset County Emergency Training Academy to utilize their phase 5 flashover simulator. Great day of training with Freewood Acres Fire Company. A special thanks to Farmingdale-Howell First Aid Squad for coming with us and standing by.
Nice video I took of the training that day www.facebook.com/cambros8823/videos/10211202407153497/

So many people in this world take life for granted, not the man I am about to describe to you from this point forward. Kevin Apuzzio, born in Union Township, NJ chose from day one on this earth that he wanted to shine his light in a positive way and lead by example.
Kevin was an alter boy at St. Michael's Catholic Church in Union, where he was always trying to follow in the path of God. Kevin was a Volunteer EMT with the Union Twp. Emergency Medical Unit, where he rode countless nights at the squad protecting the members of his community. As soon as Kevin completed his High School Diploma, he moved onto Rutgers University and choose to major in Criminal Justice and Psychology, with aspirations of becoming a Police Officer.
While in his early years at Rutgers University, Kevin obtained a job with the Rutgers University Emergency Services as a FF/EMT and put to use his past experience, to now aid his fellow students in times of need. Kevin later was led to join a Volunteer Fire Department, called The East Franklin Fire Department, in an effort to further his abilities in helping protect lives and property. Kevin had the type of personality you always wanted to be around, he lit up a room with his smile and exemplified what a world class citizen is. He would give you the shirt off his back and the last bit of change in his pocket.
April 11th, 2006 to some was just another day, to Kevin and those that knew and loved him, this would be a day we would never forget. On this day, the East Franklin Fire Department responded to a working Structure Fire at 36 Whittier Avenue with a reported entrapment. As always with a can and will do attitude, Kevin got onto the fire engine and sprung into action, with the intentions to save a life. Kevin and his crew went into the burning building, through the smoke and located the victim. Kevin and his crew were making their way out of the smoke and flames, but unfortunately not everyone went home this day.
Kevin Apuzzio tragically lost his life in the Line of Duty, doing exactly what he loved to do and that was protecting life and property, trying to keep the community safe. He may not physically be with us today, but his spirit is and will "Always be by our side."
11 years later, the men who were directly involved give a seminar wherein they travel all over the State of New Jersey, giving their 1st hand accounts of that day and what they learned, in an effort to teach the younger firefighters that you need to "Train as if you and your partners life depend on it." We ensure that everyone knows Kevin's story and what he stood for.
Kevin was well-trained, smart, honest, caring and dedicated his life to serving others. Today we will not mourn Kevin's death, but celebrate his life, what he stood for and what his memory continues to do for others.
April 11th, 2017-The 11 Year Celebration of Life of FF Kevin Apuzzio, we will never forget you brother!
Does anyone recognize the blue Volvo? This guy stole one of our members work boots from his truck while he was operating at today's fire!!!

RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE FIRE
Howell emergency services along with mutual aid from Farmingdale, Jackson and NWS Earle fire departments are currently on scene at a residential structure fire. The residents made it out safely. One firefighter has sustained an injury and was transported to hospital. He will be ok. Remember, these are volunteers who are spending this bitter cold night helping others. This is the reason for multiple companies being involved. They need to rotate personnel on a frequent basis. As you can see, Adelphia Fire did a fantastic job on the initial attack suppressing the fire and saving the house from complete destruction. Howell First-Aid, Farmingdale FAS and Howell Police EMS along with Howell OEM are also on scene providing support. Thanks to all the emergency personnel for their dedication, commitment and courage.

IMPENDING BLIZZARD
Howell emergency services and public works crews are busy preparing for the expected blizzard.
PLEASE BE REMINDED:
•Remove your vehicles from all roadways so plows can effectively remove snow. Besides it being prohibited by ordinance, its disrespectful to your neighbors. You will be ticketed and towed.
•Stay off the roadways unless it's absolutely necessary.
•Do not call the police to ask when your roads will be plowed. DPW is aware. Primary roads are completed first followed by secondary. Interior roadways are done last. They will eventually be done. Be patient!! No need to criticize how long it took for them to plow your street.
•There may be power outages. JCP@L has already contacted us. You can follow and report outages on their Facebook page.
•Our emergency operations center (EOC) will be activated. We will keep you updated on any significant events
•April the Giraffe is expected to give birth to a calf.
