To all of our viewers & followers: I would like to take this time to thank each and everyone of you personally for "Liking" our facebook page.
I started this page back on January 30, 2012, so the community of Lansdowne and others would know what is going on around them.
I would do the best I could giving you updates on each emergency calls that was posted. Yes, I'm only one person so sometimes mistakes do happen and asap I would correct it. I would do this in between work hours, out with family, etc. So again, I would do my absolute best listening to the emergency and giving you updates.
Unfortunately, just like everything else here recently, a few bad apples ruins it for everyone else.
I posted some wrong information, I got the correct information, and I posted that correct information asap on our page.
Again, I'm only one person.
As of today, I am deleting this facebook page. It looks like it says its giving me 14 days just incase I change my mind.
I really dont think thats going to happen though. I get tired of hearing people complain, sending emails to whoever, especially our own so called brothers & sisters in the fire department when I make an honest mistake.
Believe me! In the 8 years doing this, there hasn't been many.
So again! Thank you to everyone throughout the years! It's time to move on and find another hobby.
Sincerely,
Jeremy Burford
30 year member of the Lansdowne Volunteer Fire Department

This SATURDAY, JULY 11 FROM 9 AM TO 12 PM NOON, the Lansdowne Improvement Association, in conjunction with Baltimore County, will host its annual summer clean-up day complete with full size dumpsters where you can bring all your junk that you would typically have to haul to the refuse center.
