On April 3, 2018, Baltimore Gas & Electric held an event to announce new public safety grant awards to area first responders. LVRS was fortunate enough to receive support from this program once again, which allows us to purchase new gas meters for the Engine, new power tools for the Rescue Engine, and a portable suction unit for the new Ambulance. Each of these items will allow us to improve the services we provide to the citizens of Laurel. LVRS thanks BGE for their ongoing support of our mission, and for partnering with us to better serve our community!
