On Friday, February 3, 2017 the Fire Company received official notification from the Pennsylvania State Fire Commissioner's Office that we have been awarded the fire grant totaling $15,000 through the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency.

The Wagontown Fire Company was awarded $15,000 for our Fire Grant. The Fire Grant will go towards the purchase of an upgrade to our Plymovent exhaust system. This was done as part of a group venture between the Westwood Fire Company and others. This will allow the system to undergo a rehab along with new magnet mount exhaust boots. And the remainder will go to upgrade scene lighting to LED on the apparatus.

This grant program is a great asset to all Fire and Ambulance companies throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and we would like to thank State Fire Commissioner Tim Solobay and his staff for their assistance in providing this program annually to our volunteers.
