The New Midway Volunteer Fire Company places in service a 2011 Ford F-550 2 door 4x4 Brat brush truck. This unit is equipped with a Deutz 4 Cylinder Turbo 75 hp Diesel Engine and a Hale APSM 500 GPM Pump. It also has a Hale 2.1 Foam Logix Class A Foam System and a  Pro Poly 300 Gallon Protector Skid with 10 gal. Foam Cell. This unit meets and exceeds Frederick County Brush Truck standards.  

Early, Tuesday morning Box Alarm 16-1 was sounded for a building fire at Bowers Lumber. Engine tanker 94 responded and assisted with water supply operations. Company 16 units arrived on scene with heavy fire showing, and quickly requested for a second alarm. The initial water supply was originally established through Hydrant system in town but had to switch over to a static water source due to depleting town water supply. Command established a fill site at New Midway Fire Station to fill tankers. Units remained on scene through out the morning.

On April 19, 2010 two members from New Midway Fire Company were recognized for their service that they provide to the community. The first award recipient Emma Main was awarded Hall of Fame for the county, she was unable to attend the awards ceremony fortunately Judy White brought the award to New Midway and  graciously presented her with the award at our Fire Company meeting. And the second award recipient Melanie Cooley was was awarded the James H. Stavely III fire prevention award. The officers and members of New Midway Vol. Fire Co. are very proud of both of them and would like to thank them for their service that they provide to the community. 

Early Sunday afternoon, Box Alarm 9-2 was sounded for a barn fire at 10202 Oak Hill Road. Chief 16 was the first unit on the scene with a 80x400 barn fully involved he quickly established command and requested a tanker task force. Engine 91 was the first arriving engine company, they performed a forward lay to the scene and started defensive fire suppression operations. There was multiple attack lines in service and ladder pipe operations. Draft sites were established at New Midway  station fire pond and another location close to the scene. There were reports of about 170 cows inside the barn at the time of the fire, and about 60 made it out. The estimate of damage was reported to be around $750,000. A firefighter from New Midway VFC. was transported to FMH for chest pains  by Ambulance and later discharged. Multiple fire companies from Frederick and Carroll operated well into the evening. 

Early Saturday morning, Box Alarm 6-1 was sounded for an apartment fire with reports of people trapped at 2 East Main Street Emmitsburg. Engine Tanker 94 was dispatched on the Tanker Task Force, to assist Company 6 ( Vigilant Hose Co. ) The Engine Tanker responded with a crew of 5 along with the Chief. Once the Engine Tanker  arrived the crew assisted with fire suppression operations and water supply. Thankfully no one was seriously hurt and all of the residents made it out safely. The 150 year old building housed numerous apartments and Stavros Pizza on the basement level.
