If you see our trucks out while you're trick-or treating, don't be alarmed! When you see our lights, just give us a wave and we'll stop to hand out candy and treats. We like to call it reverse trick-or-treat. If we do have to respond to an emergency, we will use our sirens to make sure everyone knows. Happy Halloween!!🎃👻

Tonight we had the honor of presenting a small token of appreciation to the Erie County Sheriff's Pipes and Drums.
For those of you that don't know, every year after the 4th of July parade we do a small ceremony to remember those that were lost during the 1954 Cleveland Hill School fire at the memorial stone in town park. Since the early 1990's the Erie County Sheriff's Pipes and Drums has been providing us with their beautiful music during this ceremony.
This is only a small token to show how much we appreciate their presence these past 30(ish) years.
From our CHFD family we say THANK YOU!
Thank you to everyone who attended our open house today as well as our chicken barbecue patrons!

We’re saddened by the unexpected passing of Firefighter Brent Krebs, who tragically passed away yesterday while off duty. Brent dedicated 9 years of active service to the Cleveland Hill Fire Department and was a former member of the Main-Transit Fire Department. May he find eternal peace, and may his family find solace during this difficult time.
Great job to all those who participated and raised money for the Tunnel to Towers 5K today at Bellevue!!

Congratulations Olivia and Davaughn! We look forward to watching you progress through your probationary training.

This weekend marks another inspection in the books. Our firefighters have been spending all week cleaning the hall and trucks. Great job everyone!
As we have been deep cleaning our firehall this week for inspection, we found a set of keys in the back of one of our vehicles. If anyone has lost them from the storm please reach out through PM so we can reunite them with their owner.
As we wrap up EMS week we want to honor all of the members of the Cleveland Hill Fire Department for volunteering their time to provide emergency medical services to our town. It may not always be fun, but these members volunteer their time to help the people in our community each and every day. For that we say THANK YOU!
Today is day 6 of EMS week and we would like to continue to honor members of our department who volunteer their time to provide emergency medical services to the community. Today we honor Andy Wagner. Andy is been in the department for 23 years, joining in August of 1999. He previously held the position of Assistant EMS director for 2 years and EMS director for 3 years. Andy is currently the treasurer for the board of fire commissioners. Andy is an integral part of our day crew and is always behind the scenes helping wherever he can around the department. He can often be seen helping out at fire prevention events teaching kids about fire safety. Thank you Andy for your continued commitment to our community!!
As we continue to celebrate EMS week we'd like to honor another member from our department. Today's honoree is Mike Philipps. Mike has been volunteering at Cleveland Hill since July of 1983! He has held several titles throughout the years to include treasurer, vice president and president. He also served on the board of fire commissioners for 30 years. Mike is Mr. Fix-it around the firehall. His wealth of knowledge has been a huge help anytime we need it. Mike credits past member Bob Trautman with getting him to join 40 years ago and he's loved every minute of it since. Thank you Mike for your continued commitment to our community!
Happy day 4 of National EMS week! As we continue to celebrate this week, we also honor another member of our department that volunteers their time to provide emergency medical services to our community. Our second honoree for the week is Alexis Krebs. Alexis started her journey with us as an explorer. She was also a junior Firefighter with our mutual aid department Hy-View. Alexis rejoined our department in 2021 and has been a great addition to our crew. Alexis received the rookie of the year award in 2021 and she recently took the time to earn her NYS EMT certification. Alexis is always willing to help with community events and fire prevention details. Thank you Alexis for your commitment to helping our community!
In celebration of EMS week, we would like to recognize some of our members who volunteer their time to provide emergency medical services to our district. Today we recognize David Grant Jr for his dedication to our department and community. David joined in 2018 and worked hard to obtain his EMT and Fire 1 certifications. David has served the department formerly as an EMS Lieutenant but now holds a position as 1st Firematic Lieutenant. No matter his position, David volunteers to answer countless calls to service no matter the time of day. Thank you David for your commitment to our community!
