The holiday is over. Now back to the infighting, feuds and political power struggles that take up so much of our time.

Today will be a fairly eventful day in the little town of Colwyn.

The tiny borough has been in an uproar for several weeks, ever since the 17 or so members of the volunteer fire company resigned en masse.

The active firefighters took the action because they claim they can no longer tolerate the actions of the “social” members who use some of the other amenities of the firehouse.

Colwyn is a dry town. There are no bars. The sale of alcohol is not allowed. There is, however, the “social” club at the firehouse, where a lot of people gather to have a drink.

Today the Colwyn borough council will vote on a measure to revoke the volunteer fire company’s right to operate in the town. For now, emergency calls are being handled by neighboring fire companies.

For guys who spend a lot of their time battling fires, this issue is even hotter than some of the calls they respond to.

No surprisingly, some people believe a lot of this is not about booze, or fighting fires, but something so close to the hearts of so many in Delaware County. Politics.

One thing’s for certain. This issue isn’t going away anytime soon. And it’s likely being closely watched by several towns that have similar situations, with social functions tied to the firehouse.

We’ll let you know what the borough council decides.
