This past weekend, WVAC Youth Squad members Abby Heinze and Danielle Chan participated in the New Jersey State First Aid Council Youth Squad Competition in Keyport, New Jersey. Abby and Danielle competed as part of a joint team alongside members of Haworth EMS. Throughout the event, they took part in a variety of drills and challenges that tested the skills and knowledge they have developed through weeks of training, practice, and coursework.

The competition provided an excellent opportunity for our members to apply what they have learned, work as part of a team, and gain valuable experience in EMS that will positively benefit the town! WVAC would like to extend our thanks to Haworth EMS for welcoming our members onto their team and providing them with this outstanding opportunity. We are proud of Abby and Danielle for their hard work, dedication, and representation of WVAC at this event.

Lights, sirens, and lots of smiles! 🚑🚓🚒

Throughout the past week we joined Westwood police and fire departments to celebrate the 4th grade LEAD program at Brookside and Berkeley.

Students got an up-close look at emergency vehicles, learned about first responders, and asked some fantastic questions.

Thank you to all the students and staff for a fun day. special thanks to Detective Danielle Neuberger and Officer Ryan Casey for putting together this amazing celebration. We loved being a part of it!

Maybe we even inspired some future first responders along the way! 🚑🚓🚒
