DONATION AWARENESS

Readington Township encompasses almost 50 square miles in Hunterdon County, using an impressive number of US Post Offices to deliver our mail.  We can easily get confused when ‘local’ community service organizations call or write requesting donations and offering fund raising events.

Our Coverage Area (click for link)

The members of Whitehouse Rescue Squad want you to know that our squad has been providing EMS (Emergency Medical Services) to most of Readington since 1950 and now we are the primary EMS provider to all of Readington Township.  There is only a very small portion of the township along  Route 31 that we have designated other squads as first due.  This allows the best response to these areas and consists of a few residences.

Whitehouse Rescue Squad’s total primary coverage area also includes a Southern portion of Tewksbury and a small Western portion of Clinton; this is in addition to Readington Township.  We provide EMS and technical rescue services for our primary area.  So, just what mailing addresses are included in our coverage area?  All of: Whitehouse Station 08889, Whitehouse 08888, Readington 08870, Three Bridges 08887. Portions of: Flemington 08822 (the Southern portion of Readington Township using this Post Office), Stanton 08885, Neshanic Station 08853, Oldwick 08858, Lebanon 08833, Somerville/Branchburg 08876.

Recently, a neighboring rescue squad has allowed a significant number of telephone calls and mail solicitations to Readington residents requesting funds in conjunction with a “tribute concert”.  We want you to be aware that this rescue squad is NOT your primary EMS provider, regardless of what may be implied in the letter.  This has caused considerable confusion to our residents, prompting telephone calls to the squad and the township for clarification.  We want you to be informed as to what squad is your EMS provider.

If you have already purchased tickets to the tribute concert, we wish you an enjoyable evening – you deserve it!  You should be aware that this does not lend support to Whitehouse Rescue which responds to your house in an emergency.  Whitehouse Rescue has an annual fund drive campaign in May and a reminder mailing is now in progress.  Please thoughtfully consider us in your plans for giving in 2011.
