During our January meeting this evening, our Firematic and Fire Police Officers were formally sworn in by PA State Rep. Shelby Labs.
We extend our sincere congratulations to all as they assume their responsibilities for the year ahead. Thank you for your continued dedication, leadership, and service to our community. We look forward to a safe and successful year under your guidance.
This week, our members were invited to Heacock Lumber for a special drill. Crews toured the property, reviewed the layout, and discussed potential hazards if called there for an emergency.
Training on-site allows us to prepare for emergencies and strengthens our ability to protect our firefighters and the community. We’re grateful to Heacock Lumber for the invitation.

This week, our members put the new roof prop simulator to work, practicing how to safely cut ventilation holes during a structure fire. Training like this prepares our team for real emergencies while reinforcing the safe operation of tools and chainsaws. Hands-on drills like these ensure that when the call comes, your volunteers are ready to respond with skill, confidence, and safety at the forefront.

Members of the fire company spent their Sunday building a training prop so the firefighters can practice roof operations. The members don’t only give their time to help the residents and visitors, they give their time to make sure they remain professional and ready to go. 100% volunteers! Once again, the members perform fundraisers to purchase materials for things like this. Are you one of the 84% of the residents who have NOT sent back your annual donation? We can use your help. Thank you to those who continue to donate.
A few members joined fellow firefighters at Richlandtown Fire Co. for specialized Grain Bin Rescue Training, led by the National Education Center for Agricultural Safety. After learning about grain bin design and rescue challenges in the classroom, they tested their skills with hands-on drills, practicing how to safely stabilize and extricate a patient from a grain bin. Training like this helps us stay prepared to protect our community in any situation!
