Donating is Safe: There is no data or precedent suggesting the risk of transfusion transmission of COVID-19 or other similar respiratory viruses (like SARS and MERS-CoV, also novel coronaviruses). Donors are screened for possible exposure to COVID-19 via travel or contacts immediately upon entering a donor area and social distancing is observed. The FDA, CDC, and American Association of Blood Banks are not recommending any additional action at this time.
Our Process: Donors will park their vehicle upon arrival and go to the donation building. Our staff will provide donors with a number, pen and donor questionnaire to fill out. Donors will complete the questionnaire and wait in their car until their number is called. When called, donors will bring the completed questionnaire along with identification to the building and complete registration.
Be Prepared:
Donors should have eaten a full meal within four hours of arriving
Be free of cold, flu, and allergy symptoms for three days prior to donating
Be well hydrated the day before and the day of the donation
Please Note: If you have traveled within the last two weeks, come in contact with anyone with COVID-19 or flu-like symptoms, or have a fever, please do not come to donate at this time.

Be A Life Saver. Donate Blood.Thank you to everybody who has applied for the GSFR Fire Camp this summer. Unfortunately, due to CoVID-19, the camp will be POSTPONED until 2021. We are currently researching additional opportunities to help youth engage in the fire services while adhering to social distancing rules for Summer 2020. As soon as we have more information, we will be sure to keep you up-to-date! We thank you for your cooperation during these pressing times.
Social distancing kept the children from the annual Easter Egg Hunt held at American Legion Post 662 (New Holland) in New Holland this year. But the Easter Bunny was saddened and wanted to say hello to all the kids. Easter Bunny enlisted the help of the area emergency services. With the help of New Holland Police Department, New Holland Ambulance and Garden Spot Fire Rescue, the cotton tailed character was paraded through town to say hello. With lights flashing and sirens wailing everyone knew he was coming. The Easter Bunny standing tall on the rear of Truck 39 put a lot of smiles on children faces as they jumped and waved as he went by.
Hello Community! Here is the route for our Easter Bunny Tour tomorrow starting at 10:00! We look forward to seeing you all and Remember to practice Social Distancing!
The Rescue, Truck, and Tanker assisted Station 49 with a reported house fire on Narvon Rd.
We have decided to cancel this year's Easter Flower Sale due to following social distancing procedures and to keep everyone safe.

Pick up at their location in Lititz or Mohnton. You do not need to leave your car. They load your car for you. Have a safe and fun Easter weekend.

Today, Engine 39-3 traveled to Mechanicsburg Cumberland Co. to provide coverage to their area, along with an Engine from Wiconisco Dauphin Co.
The crew spent the day there so the membership from Mechanicsburg could pay their respects and attend the services for FF Jerome Guise that died in the Line of Duty operating at a house fire where a female also perished.
