Local 4687 would like to take a minute to congratulate one of our former members, Scott Lanahan. On Thursday May 27th he graduated from a grueling 4 month fire academy! He recently departed Evesham Fire Rescue to take a job with Greenwich Fire Department in Connecticut. Scott attended college in the area, and found it fitting to return and pursue a full time career. Great job Scott, and good luck with your new endeavors. Local 1042 has gained a great new member! Congratulations to all the graduates from their class - “Experiment 67”. 3 Comments

Meet your Evesham Township Professional Firefighters!
Firefighter/ Inspector Kevin Harper started in 2005 as a member of our Explorer program, and became a certified Firefighter in 2009.
Firefighter/ Inspector Harper has held many hats here at Evesham Fire Rescue but he’s also been a part of other organizations as well.
Kevin worked at the Collingswood Fire Department for a year in 2016, prior to being hired full time in Evesham in 2017. He gained an interest in the fire service at a very young age because of his family. His older brother was an Explorer at the time and his Father was a career Captain with Evesham for 26 years. His Grandfather was also a past member of Marlton Fire Co. No. 1 and Life Member of Louden Volunteer Fire Department in Atco, NJ.
Firefighter/ Inspector Harper currently works at Burlington County Emergency Services Training Center as an Instructor, and has taught many of our members in some of the programs he helps to instruct.
Prior to being hired in Evesham, Kevin held the rank of Volunteer Lieutenant and was also the Volunteer Recruitment and Retention officer. Currently he is responsible for our NFPA compliant annual hose testing for the entire department.
Firefighter/ Inspector Harper also has important roles within Local 4687. He currently acts as President of Evesham Professional Firefighters Political Action Committee and the Evesham Professional Firefighters Foundation.
As you know, our Evesham Professional Firefighters stay educated for you, the community. Firefighter/ Inspector Harper is no exception. He holds certifications in Uniform Construction Code, Instructor 2, Fire Official, Fire Officer 2 and CPR Instructor.
Outside of work, Kevin likes to keep busy. Kevin and his better half, Rachel, are currently spending most of their time getting their new home in Hammonton “Baby Ready”. Outside of that, Kevin enjoys spending time with family, going to the beach and he is also a fantastic Wedding officiant, as we have all witnessed!
Local 4687 is happy to have Kevin as a member, and we wish him the best as he continues his career here at Evesham Fire Rescue. 4 Comments

It’s National EMS week!
May 16-22, 2021, is the 46th annual National EMS Week. In 1974, President Gerald Ford authorized EMS Week to celebrate EMS practitioners and the important work they do in our nation's communities. This year's theme is This Is EMS: Caring for Our Communities
Every full-time firefighter here at Evesham is also an EMT! In fact, we actually do more EMS related activities than fire on a day to day basis. EMS is about 70% of our job, and as always, we stay educated! We are all required to complete a number of continuing education classes, including a multi-module EMS “core” refresher every time we apply for recertification! Whether it’s responding to a simple call for help off the floor, or a cardiac arrest, your Evesham Professional Firefighters are always there to answer the call. Local 4687 would like to take a minute and thank each and every one of our EMS brothers and sisters for their service and what they do day in and day out to protect their communities.
Thank you to all of you and happy National EMS week! 31 Likes
