Keeping Chester informed about what is going on in the neighborhood, one post at a time! They cover what the news doesn't.
(29)

Influenced by Birdeye View News and BEV2, the Chester CHIRP (formerly the Chester City Incident Blog) has been developed in order to keep the citizens of Chester informed of what is going on around them. From "what are those sirens about?" to "I found a dog, what do I do?" to "I need a job, can you help?", you can find all of the information right here in one place, just by clicking the Chester CH

IRP. Starting in March of 2017, founders Wydeen and Jayci decided that it was finally time to merge together and create the blog. With many citizens of the city depending on select individuals to keep them updated on the latest happenings in the city, the Chester CHIRP was created to keep everything in one compact place. They also noticed that citizens were coming to them more, instead of mainstream media, because of their commitment and connections with the city, and because of their ability to cover a story more effectively, more raw, and more unadulterated than the media due to those connections. While Wydeen has taken a bit of a step back, Jayci has taken on the full time responsibility of bringing you all of the information you are looking for. With the help of the citizens of Chester, they hope to bring you the most updated information on what is going on in the city. Please feel free to send a message (not post on the blog wall, as those posts sometimes get lost) with any questions, or if you notice any first responder/police activity. You can also call the CHIRPLine at ANY time - (267)636-0525. They will do their best to accommodate all questions and concerns in a timely manner. Expect pictures and first hand coverage from your founders, as well as picture credits from various other outlets. As of October 1st, 2020, the CCIB has been rebranded to be the Chester CHIRP! Or Chester City Help, Incident, and Resource Page, to reflect a much broader opportunity to get all the information you need in one place.

**DISCLAIMER - The Chester CHIRP work closely alongside, but are not an entity of or affiliated with, Chester City Government, the Chester Police Department, or the City of Chester Fire Department. If you are experiencing an emergency, please call 911.

Hey all, just a heads up that I'll most likely be down and out tomorrow. All of my personal signature signs of a fibromyalgia flare (stabbing pain behind my eye, burning sensation down the side of my face, blister on my forehead)... it's all forming today which means tomorrow will probably be an in bed, lights out, can't move, phone on DND type of day 😔 so if I don't get back to you or send you to voicemail, that's why. Should be fine by Friday though as long as I get some rest.

***IMPORTANT INFO***

Changing the body of this post because I'm getting conflicting information - Updating 11:52am - Crozer and Taylor Emergency Rooms were, and may still be, on a DIVERT due to tech issues. I was told that they are not, then told that they were, taking ER patients, but that the wait times would be increased due to these issues.

In other words, please assume that you may incur much longer wait times than usual if you do visit these Emergency departments.
