On January 12, 1978 at the regular monthly meeting of the Cumberland Valley Hose Company members voted to purchase two 1978 Dodge Continental van ambulances for an estimated cost of $32,874 including trade ins. The units were to replace two 1973 Cadillac’s and marked the first time the company would operate ambulance’s not of that style. The decision was made after months of discussions within the company about the type of ambulance to buy.
Today also marks the 150Th birthday of the Cumberland Valley Hose Company.
