Burnham Fire Department

06/24/2026

As we are coming up on The Penny Bazaar in August we wanted to share some information so you know the why behind all of the fundraising. Prices for equipment have gone way up and funding has not changed. This is why Fire Companies are constantly trying to get funds. This is not just Burnham Fire Company but every single Volunteer Fire Company. When the community supports us this is what they are helping provide. Community support helps us help you. Thank you to the many who support their local companies in any way they can. Without you we could not continue to provide services to our communities.

Penny Bazaar will be happening in just a few short months.
Raffle Tickets and Penny Tickets are available for sale. Someone will be at bingo tonight after 4pm so you can get them early. After tonight Penny Tickets will not be for sale until July 2nd as the person who handles that will be unavailable. Get your tickets now so you can avoid the lines and have them pulled apart ahead of time.

Today we had the honor of presenting two scholarships to two students who exemplify what Fred Nickel was all about. He had deep love of education, The Mifflin County Academy, the students within the Mifflin County School District, community service and a deep love for his community. We had the pleasure presenting this award with the Nickel Family. We are able to do these scholarships because of the people in our community that have donated to the Frederick D Nickel Scholarship Fund and we thank you for your generous donations so we can continue to do this for the students of the Mifflin County School District.

The first Scholarship was awarded to Beth McKnight. She attended The Academy and recieved a certificate in Health Professions. She will be attending a 4 year college and will be Pre Med.

The second Scholarship was awarded to Kaitlyn Nearhoof. She attended The Academy and recieved a certificate in Health Professions. She will be attending a 4 year college and will be going for her nursing degree.

Congratulations to you both and we wish you the best in all of your future endeavors.
