Fire department hosts car wash fundraiser

The proceeds will be matched by a local furniture business. Author: WNEP Web Staff Updated: 6:25 PM EDT June 27, 2021 DICKSON CITY, Pa. The Dickson City Fire Department used its resources to make a little money on Sunday. The crew washed cars instead of fighting fires, all to raise money for the volunteer fire department.  For the second year in a row, firefighters soaked cars down for $5 per vehicle - while a local business, Berger Furniture & Mattress, once again is matching the proceeds up to $500. It s great to have the community support behind us because we do put an awful lot of time just responding to alarms and doing some training, said Rich Chowanec, president of the Dickson City Fire Department.

Firefighters help clean up after flooding in Dickson City

A former firefighter s home was flooded earlier this month. Author: WNEP Web Staff Updated: 7:43 PM EDT May 15, 2021 DICKSON CITY, Pa. Dickson City firefighters spent their day helping out one of their own. Benjamin Jaroshinski lives along Main Street in Dickson City. The former firefighter s home was flooded earlier this month when the culverts became blocked on nearby Dundaff Street. Jaroshinski was paralyzed in a motorcycle crash. So, firefighters spent their Saturday cleaning up the destruction left behind to help repay Jaroshinski for all the hard work he s put in over the years. I can honestly say if it wasn t for the Dickson City Fire Department, we probably wouldn t have water and heat for a much longer time. They are on their second truckload, they ve got at least a dozen people here helping. Thank heavens for the fire department, said Sue Courtwright, a friend of Jaroshinski.
