Today, members of the Hazle Township Fire & Rescue Company, along with members of the Hazleton Fire Department, had the opportunity to provide a fire prevention program for the students and parents of Maple Manor Elementary/Middle School.

We enjoyed spending time with the students, sharing important fire safety information, and helping teach the next generation about the importance of fire prevention and safety.

A special thank you to Maple Manor Elementary/Middle School for inviting us and allowing us to be part of today’s program!

We are proud to continue working with our community and educating families about fire safety.

9 Box Alarms
3 Working Fires
1 Pins

During the month of August, the 2026 Fire Line Officers were officially sworn in during the monthly Hazle Township meeting. We are proud to recognize these members who have stepped forward to take on leadership roles and continue serving our community.

We were also honored to attend the swearing-in ceremony of two of our members who were hired as firefighters with the Hazleton City Fire Department. We are extremely proud of their accomplishments and wish them continued success as they begin this next chapter in their firefighting careers.

August was also a difficult month for our company as we said goodbye to our fellow brother and friend, William “Billy” Gallagher. Billy's dedication, friendship, and service will never be forgotten. His legacy will continue to live on through the many lives he touched and through the Hazle Township Fire & Rescue Company, and Township he proudly served.
