Hopewell Valley Tactical Rescue Team Practices Ice Rescue in Frigid Temperatures

The Hopewell Valley tactical rescue team honed their ice rescue skills this weekend at the Hopewell Valley YMCA’s Reed Road pond. The team, consisting of members of Hopewell Valley volunteer fire companies and emergency services, regularly trains to respond to emergencies across Hopewell Valley. The air temperature during the drill was 11 degrees

Mike is the former Chief of Hopewell Township Police and all-around great guy. MercerMe is so grateful that he often can be found around town with his camera and has his ear to the ground with all local first responder news.
