Last night at 22:32 (10:32 pm) TFD was dispatched to a possible structure fire. On arrival C Group found a fire outside of the residence with the beginning phases of extension to the house and nearby fence. Quick work kept the damage to the structure at a minimum. Per protocol members of the other 4 fire districts also responded. Initially this call had been received by via phone at North Thompsonville fire, TFD would like to remind everyone that if you have an emergency please call 911. Had someone not been in the station at NTFD this could have been a totally different outcome.

12:01 pm TFD C group along with NTFD responded to a multi car accident on I-91 south bound between exits 49 and 48. While working on scene, another minor car accident occurred right next to Squad 21 when one motor vehicle failed to pay attention to the warning signals and cone pattern signaling a lane closure and to merge to the left. This near miss of the fire apparatus happens all too often on the highway. This is why multiple apparatus respond to highway insidents. While to the general public it may seem excessive, it’s for the protection of the fire department, state and local PD, EMS, tow truck company members and the parties involved in the accent we have responded too.

Last night at the Connecticut Fire Department Instructors Association (CFDIA) awards banquet, TFD’s very own Firefighter Eric Fischl was awarded the CFDIA Presidents award and a citation from the state of Connecticut for being a key part in getting the Windsor fire education program up and running and being on technical advisory boards for continuing education and training in the fire service. Eric is a valuable asset to TFD with his instructor knowledge and constant passion for the job. Congratulations Eric for a job well done!

Thompsonville Fire is pleased to announce the arrival of the new Squad 21! In the next several weeks, members will be training on the new squad before it goes into service.
All of us at Thompsonville Fire would also like to take a moment to thank the members of the Squad 21 truck committee for all their hard work and dedication in creating a custom designed apparatus to better serve the citizens we protect on a daily basis.
