About 20 minutes after the initial dispatch Tower 9 was alerted to the call for overhaul. Tower 9’s crew assisted with overhaul and hitting some remaining hot spots.

At 248 Tower 9 was alerted to the working house fire on Ralph D. Myers Pl. The tower responded with 4. Tower 9 arrived on scene as the first due special service. The crew broke up in to two groups, one group threw ground ladders and the other went inside to open up for the engine companies. About 15 minutes into the incident the evacuation tone was sounded. Tower 9 set up the ladder pipe to knock the fire so engine companies could get back in. Crews assisted with overhaul until 830 when the tower went back in service.

During Fire Prevention Week the members of the department invited the Pre-K and Kindergarten class from Indian Head Elementary School to the station. During the visit they practiced dialing 911 on the simulator, toured the firehouse, and saw a member dress out in full turnout gear. This allowed the students to see and hear a firefighter. This has been very beneficial in the education of students and has helped many overcome their fear of firefighters.
The station also held an open house where the public could tour the station and apparatus. Fire prevention pamphlets were available for the adults and fun fire prevention activities were available for children. Members also visited the Indian Head Elementary School where the Chief talked about fire prevention. The students also got to meet Sparky the firefighting dog and Smokey the bear. The children also got to tour the apparatus and see the many tools used in firefighting.
