On this hot summer day the kids at Westampton Township Recreation's Summer Camp were treated to a giant slip and slide to keep cool.
We hope they had as much fun as we did!
Update : As of 12:15 the Southbound Lanes of 541 have been reopened. The Northbound Lanes have been reduced to one lane on the shoulder. Please use caution while driving in the area.
Traffic Alert: Route 541 between Woodlane and the Bypass is current closed due to a gas leak. There currently is no hazard to residents or businesses in the area.
Today, members stopped by Westampton Township Recreation's Summer Camp to talk about fire safety and show the campers our equipment.
Thanks for the invite!!!
If you have walked outside today, you know that it is hot. Please take precautions if you work or have to be outside. Drink water to stay hydrated. Keep your pets inside and out of vehicles.
If you have an elderly family member, neighbor or friend please check on them. Ensure their AC is working, that they are drinking water, etc.
Over the next few weeks crews will be out installing reflective fire hydrant markers on all fire hydrants within Westampton.
The fire hydrant markers will make it easier to locate at night and also are color coded based on the amount of water they can flow.
The fire hydrant markers were made possible by a generous donation from IKEA's Westampton Distribution Warehouse.
Good! We still need some kind of speed enforcement near the park on Sharpless though, before a child is hit and killed........ It is necessary
Check this out from our friends at Westampton Township Police Department.

From all of us at the WTES have a happy and safe 4th of July!
Also with recent changes in NJ's law allowing "non-explosive, non-aerial" fireworks. Please remember to use caution. Even the always fun sparklers can be very dangerous to kids and adults due to the intense heat of over 1000 degrees that they displace as they burn.
We would like to wish FF/EMT Melissa Gotthardt Whitley a happy retirement after spending her last few hours at work! Congrats!!
Enjoy your retirement, Melissa. You've worked hard and always made our First Aid/CPR training fun.
Congrats Melissa! Well deserved!
Congratulations Melissa!

The storms that came through this evening caused many trees and wires to come down throughout Westampton. Westampton Emergency Services handled over 15 calls in under an hour.
We remind everyone that if they see wires down to assume that the are energized, stay away, and call 911.
A huge shout out and thanks to Westampton police and fire company.A tree fell on my roof during last night's storm and the police came making sure we were ok.He called the fire company and they assessed the situation to make sure everything was sound.Great job to all responders!!!Thank you!!!
Today the WTES Fire Inspectors/Officials are taking a course on the retrofit code. Fire inspections are performed to identify fire hazards prior to an emergency occurring. Having knowledge of the code assists us while out in the field performing inspections.
Last night at about 11 pm, Westampton Township Emergency Services was dispatched to an alarm system at a strip mall on Woodlane Road. While enroute the assignment was upgraded to a building fire after Westampton Police arrived and found smoke coming from the building.
Westampton Rescue Engine 2723 arrived, layed its own supply line, forced entry, and stretched a hose line to find a fire in the kitchen area extending up the wall.
The fire was quickly brought under control with assistance from Mount Laurel Fire Department, Willingboro Fire Department, and Lumberton Fire Company. During the incident Mount Holly Fire District No.1 provided fire coverage and America Emergency Squad provided EMS coverage for Westampton Township.
The fire is currently under investigation by the Westampton Township Fire Marshals Office.
