Last night, Roslyn Fire Company members were back on the training ground, putting in the work required to stay ready for real-world emergencies.

Crews worked on wet line hose advancement, practicing how to move and control charged hose lines while operating as a team. Members also reviewed nozzle flow patterns and how different stream selections can be used depending on fire conditions and the task at hand.

The drill also gave newer pump operators the opportunity to practice supplying multiple hand lines at the same time, helping build confidence in managing water flow, pressure, and coordination between the engine and crews on the line.

Training then shifted to firefighter rescue skills, where members practiced proper techniques for dragging and removing a downed firefighter. It is a physically demanding skill, but one that is critical when a firefighter needs help.

Every drill night is another opportunity to improve, work together, and prepare for the moments when our community — or one of our own — may be counting on us.

Roslyn Fire Company is 100% volunteer, and our members continue to dedicate their time to training, teamwork, and service.

Interested in getting involved? Stop by the firehouse on Wednesday nights at 7:00 PM to learn more.

Great work by all who attended.

This week, members of Roslyn Fire Company took part in helicopter landing zone training hosted by Ivyland Fire-Company and conducted by JeffSTAT Critical Care Transport.

The training included two nights of classroom lecture followed by a hands-on practical session, where members worked through the process of establishing a safe helicopter landing zone, communicating with the JeffSTAT medevac crew, and properly directing the aircraft into the scene.

Crews focused on identifying a safe landing area, determining wind direction, and ensuring the landing zone was clear of wires, poles, obstructions, debris, vehicles, and bystanders. Members also practiced maintaining clear communication with the flight crew from approach through landing to help ensure a safe and controlled operation.

These are critical skills when seconds matter and patients need rapid transport to advanced medical care. Training like this helps ensure our members are prepared to support medevac operations safely, efficiently, and professionally when called upon.

Thank you to Ivyland Fire Company for hosting and to the JeffSTAT medevac crew for sharing their knowledge and experience with our members. 🚁🔥

100% Volunteer. Always Training. Always Ready.

Today around 5:00 PM, Roslyn Fire Company, along with our mutual aid partners, was dispatched to the Willow Grove Park Mall for a report of smoke in the building by mall security.

Firefighters from multiple companies quickly arrived on scene and began investigating, focusing on a row of stores on the second level of the mall. As a precaution, that section of the mall was evacuated while crews worked to locate the source of the smoke.

Crews worked efficiently together to narrow down the source and located a small fire inside a bathroom in one of the retail stores.

The fire was quickly extinguished, and firefighters checked the surrounding area to ensure there was no extension. Crews then began ventilating the affected area and clearing smoke from the building.

Incidents like this are a strong reminder of how quickly a situation can develop, especially in a large commercial occupancy. Thanks to the fast actions of responding crews and the strong coordination between Roslyn Fire Company and our mutual aid partners, what could have become a much more serious incident was brought under control quickly.

Roslyn Fire Company appreciates the support from all mutual aid fire companies that assisted.

The fire is currently under investigation by the Abington Township Fire Marshal’s Office.

Roslyn Fire Company members put in another strong night of training yesterday during our weekly drill, focusing on standpipe operations and the deployment and use of high-rise packs.

These are the kinds of skills that matter when the pressure is on. Success at emergencies does not happen by accident- it comes from repetition, teamwork, and mastering the fundamentals before the call ever comes in.

From stretching and connecting to operating efficiently as a crew, members worked through the critical steps needed to move water where it is needed most in larger buildings and more challenging environments, including the important role of the driver/operator in pumping the correct pressure to overcome the increased friction loss that occurs in larger and multi-story buildings and to support crews operating inside.

As a 100% volunteer fire company, nights like this are a reminder of the dedication our members continue to show week after week to stay ready to serve the community.

Interested in being part of it? Roslyn Fire Company meets every Wednesday night at 7:00 PM. Stop by and get involved.
