Closter Volunteer Ambulance & Rescue Corps

10/05/2026

Over the past three days, the Closter Volunteer Ambulance & Rescue Corps responded to 13 medical calls and an NVD football standby game. Two medical calls were dispatched within minutes of each other, four times throughout the weekend! This means that two ambulances were staffed and on the road simultaneously and within minutes of each other, for 8 different calls. Thank you to our volunteers for the response and service throughout the weekend and always! If you want to give back to your community, consider filling out an application at: https://cvarcnj.org

Today, CVARC members assisted in a rappel demonstration for the Bergen County Youth Police Academy. Also this morning, members trained the Closter DPW in CPR and First Aid. Squeeze in responding to two calls, it was a busy day for the department. Thank you to all our members for their dedicated service.

🇺🇸Your volunteers were very busy yesterday. In the morning a crew attended Alpine’s Memorial Day ceremony followed by a medical call. Next on the agenda, Closter’s Memorial Day parade. We worked hard to create a very meaningful float (please see the photo of our poster for full explanation). After the parades & ceremonies were in the books, we answered another 5 calls. 100% Volunteer 🚑🩷.
