FIRE: The Skippack Fire Company is an entirely volunteer organization that has been serving Skippack and the neighboring communities since 1899. In addition to fire protection, they also provide vehicle and confined space rescue services and fire police functions. Today, the Skippack Fire Company has six pieces of emergency apparatus to protect the community. If you would like to learn more, everyone is welcome. Our meeting night is the 2nd Monday of each month, and training is every Thursday night. We are always looking for new members. In addition to fire fighters, we also need fire police, administrative and support functions. MEDICAL: The Skippack Emergency Medical Services was formed in 1986 as a not-for-profit volunteer ambulance. SEMS services the residents of Skippack Township as the local emergency responder and provides the best possible care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year using volunteer workers. We appreciate all of the support that the residents have given to SEMS. Without the residents, SEMs would not be able to run as efficiently and effectively as they have over the past 13 years. Volunteers are vital to our organization. We are continually looking for residents of Skippack Township to volunteer. Volunteer to serve on various committees, to run calls as an Emergency Medical Technician, a paramedic, or as a driver. Our organizational meeting is on the second Tuesday of the month and training is on the fourth Tuesday of the month. |
