BELMAR During its meeting on May 4, the Belmar borough council discussed the possibility of buying the building that formerly was the home of the Belmar First Aid Squad, which was the oldest volunteer first-aid squad in the country, dating back to 1927.
The First Aid Squad ceased operations on March 31 due to lack of funding and other operational issues. The building is currently listed for sale, and the First Aid Squad is currently accepting bids for the building and property, located on the corner of 9th Avenue and D Street.
According to Mayor Mark Walsifer, building a new first aid building would most likely cost more than buying the current building, so he feels that is something that the borough should look into.
