Gershow Recycling Donates Two Vehicles for Hauppauge (NY) Fire Department’s Annual Fire Prevention Open House

In support of local firefighting, rescue, and emergency medical services (EMS) crews, Gershow Recycling donated two vehicles to the Hauppauge (NY) Fire Department for an extrication exercise the firefighters performed during its Annual Fire Prevention Open House on October 2.
 
Those in attendance got a chance to see how firefighters extricate a “victim” from a “crash” using the “Jaws of Life” on the two vehicles. The Hauppauge Fire Department thanked Gershow for their generous support.
