On the eve of the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, state Sen. John C. Rafferty Jr., R-44, delivered a ceremonial check to the members of the Thorndale Fire Company, representing a DCED Local Municipal Relief grant award in the amount of $150,000. Last month, Rafferty secured the grant award which will allow Thorndale's firefighters to make important updates to the fire station located in Caln Township.
"It is my honor and privilege to present this check to the brave men and women of the Thorndale Fire Company who volunteer to serve the residents of Caln Township – day and night – to keep our communities safe," said Rafferty during the presentation ceremony. "Having been both a township supervisor and a state senator, I have seen how hard our firefighters work across the Commonwealth."
