Please Join Us in Congratulating Our Newest Certified Firefighters!

Volunteer members Samir Khan and Kayla St. Onge have successfully completed the Essentials of Firefighting (Firefighter I) training at the Montgomery County Department of Public Safety Fire Academy. Samir and Kayla recently graduated alongside 35 other recruits representing various fire companies.

Firefighter I is a nearly 200-hour entry-level national certification course. Our firefighters must complete this training before they can engage in interior firefighting operations. In addition to learning fire science, behavior, and various suppression methods, recruits also earn certifications in the Incident Command System (ICS), hazardous materials operations, CPR, and first aid.

Both of these new graduates joined our department during the second half of last year, working diligently to complete this intensive academy program during nights and weekends.

Samir joined our department shortly after graduating from Cornell University. A Philadelphia native, he first came to the area as a student at The Hill School in Pottstown and is proud to also call Phoenixville home.

Kayla grew up in Bristol, CT, and moved to Phoenixville in 2022. She resides locally with her boyfriend and works full-time in real estate in King of Prussia.

Congratulations, Samir and Kayla, and thank you for your dedication to protecting and serving our community!

Your Phoenixville Fire Department is a "combination" department, meaning our team is a mix of career and volunteer firefighters. We are always looking for new volunteers to serve as firefighters, fire police, or administrative support. Message us today if you are ready to make a difference and have the time to commit to your community.

Trash Fire to the Rear of Nailer's Row

At 7:21 PM, our department was alerted for trash cans on fire on Taylor Alley in the area of the Gay Street Memorial Bridge (aka "The High Bridge"). The caller reported two trash cans were on fire.

A crew with ladder 65 responded to the incident. Firefighters arrived to find the remnants of two trash toters on fire in a private parking area to the rear of a house on Mill Street (historically known as Nailer's Row). A pressurized-water extinguisher and a "trash line" were used to extinguish the fire. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Crews cleared the scene in 20 minutes.
