An event that has changed the Jersey Shore forever.

When Hurricane Sandy hit, it destroyed the firehouse and their much needed equipment to help them do their jobs. The firehouse was filled with over 3 feet of water that destroyed everything they had. They are currently working out of 2 trailers in their parking lot due to the pure destruction inside.
