**LINCOLNWAY AND SHILOH FIRE COMPANIES MERGE**

As you have maybe seen in past posts and on the West Manchester Township Fire Department page, the Lincolnway and Shiloh Fire Companies have been working for many years to merge the two departments together. In 2015 this was started on the operations side and completed at the end of 2019. Effective July 1, 2021 the Executive Side was officially merged and Lincolnway Volunteer Fire Company and Shiloh Fire Company are now officially one department.

There will be no changes to the services that we provide to our community. This was an internal process to streamline our business and operational practices.

As a result of the merger, the individual Lincolnway and Shiloh pages will be deactivated in the future. Please go to our West Manchester Township Fire Department page and like it to keep up to date on our events and activities.

All of the pictures and history that was provided on the individual pages will be moved over to the West Manchester Township Fire Department Page in the coming months.

Both the Lincolnway and Shiloh Fire Companies greatly appreciates all of our communities support and we look forward to continuing to provide the quality of service that our community has been known to receive from us well into the future.
