The Chesterfield Township Emergency Squad is currently seeking new volunteer members to join their organization.
The Emergency Squad has been providing Emergency Services to the residents of Chesterfield and surrounding towns since 1988 and this year will be celebrating its 25th year of Service. The organization is looking for enthusiastic men and women to join the ranks of the Emergency Squad to help assist neighbors in need of medical help. Many people will never call for an Ambulance in their lifetime, but when that time comes and they need medical assistance, it is good to know that our neighbors will be there to answer the call. Please consider joining the Chesterfield Emergency Squad.
The Emergency Squad will reimburse new members the cost of becoming an Emergency Medical Technician.

The Crosswicks Community Association, under the leadership and guidance of Russell Caldwell, is assembling, cataloging and preserving historical records.

The association is asking community members involved in the organization during these times to donate records, including minutes, receipts, programs and so forth.
