It certainly looks pretty, however all of our departments have been working hard to handle the significant snowfall received overnight.

The US National Weather Service Pittsburgh PA called for the possibility of lake effect snow bands, and South Strabane Township has been host to one sitting on top of us for the past ~10 hours! Reports are anywhere from 6-8” of snow.

The Department of Public Works has been working tirelessly to keep up with the snowfall and will continue through its completion. South Strabane Fire Department and South Strabane Township Police Department have been busy with incidents ranging from vehicle accidents to traffic signals completely obstructed with snow.

Snow is expected to continue. If you can - stay home, stay warm, and - stay safe!

Woohoo!

Strong work by South Strabane Township Police Department in their "battle of the badges" against the Washington County PA Sheriff Office for the Washington Salvation Army. In just TWO hours, officers from SSPD raised $957.44.

Thank you to all who donated as well as our officers and deputies from the Sheriff's Office who participated!

🥁🚨 DRUM ROLL PLEASE… 🚨🥁
The Battle of the Badges was intense! In a bell-ringing frenzy, the brave Officers of the South Strabane Township Police Department went head-to-head with the dedicated Deputies of the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, battling it out for 2 action-packed hours to see who could raise the most funds to benefit our community through The Salvation Army.

And the winner is… 🥁🥁🥁

🏆 SOUTH STRABANE TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT! 🏆
💰 Raising an incredible $957.44

👏 A HUGE shoutout to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, who raised an amazing $477.31 and showed incredible heart and commitment every step of the way!

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to both departments. Tonight was truly instrumental in pushing us closer and closer to our $70,000 Christmas goal—with less than $10,000 left to raise before Christmas Eve!

Because of heroes like you—on and off duty—families will be fed, hope will be restored, and lives will be blessed. Thank you for thinking of others, serving beyond the badge, and showing our community what true compassion looks like. ❤️🔔👮‍♂️🎄

Township staff gathered today for our annual Holiday Lunch. It's always a welcome opportunity to step away from the hustle and bustle and reconnect with one another. What truly bonds us as an organization is our shared commitment to serving our community and supporting each other.

We are incredibly proud of our dedicated staff and the work they do each day to care for our neighbors.

For many years, this luncheon has been made possible thanks to the generous donation of food and beverages from Mosites Construction, offered as a sign of appreciation for our team. We are grateful for their continued support.
