From the early evening on Friday, January 22, until late day on Sunday, Good Will members staffed the firehouse with multiple crews rotating on 8-hour shifts. Members were kept busy, clearing snow from the firehouse sidewalks, entrances, and infront of the bays, while also handling multiple emergencies, and also clearing snow from various hydrants across the WCFD local. On Sunday, Station 51 was dispatched to a house in the 800 block of Shenton Road for the auto fire. While units were marking up the assignment was upgraded to a car fire with extension, adding Station 53 and 55 for an ambulance. Crews arrived and confirmed the report, then upgraded the assignment again to a working fire. Engine 52-2 and Tanker 52 were on the street shortly after dispatch and upon arrival the incident was quickly placed under control.
