One of the most dedicated and professional group you may ever meet. Working miracles on a small budget. Been a member since 1976. Nuff said.

I responded to a newspaper ad looking for volunteers for the TriState Emergency Team. I found the group to be motivated to be a professional team, as well as fun to be with. The training we get is topnotch and I feel confident the team operates as professionals. I am proud to be associated with this group.
