Tri-Community South EMS Personnel and the Stanley Cup

Tri-Community South EMS attends block parties throughout the year as part of our public relations and awareness program.

On July 11, 2009 Tri-Community South EMS attended a block party on Siesta Drive in Upper St. Clair. This was a very special event for everyone on the block. The Pittsburgh Penguins senior adviser Eddie Johnston brought the Stanley Cup to Siesta Drive fulfill a promise to the community.

While people were lining up to have their picture taken with the Stanley Cup, Mr. Johnston approached the Tri-Community South EMS crew and told them that, "You take care of everyone else first, now it is time we take care of you first."

He told the crew, EMT Blake Bendel and Paramedic Alan Jackson, to come up and be the first ones to get their picture taken with the most wanted trophy in the National Hockey League, The Stanley Cup.
