History

The initial meeting held on October 27, 1925 in the home of Harry Gross was for the purpose of organizing the Glendora Volunteer Fire Company #1.

Prior to this date the Glendora men had been members of the Chews Landing Company that answered calls in the Glendora area. On November 25, 1925 the first officers were elected and it was decided that Tuesday night would be the time to meet and is still the meeting night of the company.

The first ground purchased by the fire company was the 80’ x 100’ lot on Seventh Avenue for $ 900.00 dollars the first Chief was elected on December 29, 1925. On January 7, 1926 the Incorporation papers were completed and in July the by-laws were accepted.

Last Thursday Chief Ricciardelli traveled to the HME plant located in Wyoming Michigan to perform the final inspection of Glendora Fire Company’s new apparatus. This truck has been on order for a little over 2 years with delays from Covid, Ford Motor Co. and other related supply chain issues. We are happy to announce that she is finally home in Bay #1.

TAC-81 is a 2022 Ford F550 crew cab 4x4 with a HME stainless steel body.
Pump Hale 1500 gpm, 300-gallon water tank and 15-gallon structural foam tank.
it is equipped with 3 pre-connects:
200’ of 1.75” over the pump, 200’ of 1.75” LR hose bed, and 200’ of 2.50” RR hose bed.
500’ of 1” forestry line on the reel.
The supply line will be 500 to 800’ of 5” LDH.

What’s inside?
Milwaukee battery operated lights and saws.
Genesis Battery operated Combo tool.
Battery operated Blowhard fan.
Imagers, meters, hooks, tools, ropes,
AED, Medical Bag, oil dry, shovels, brooms etc.

Stay tuned as the lettering, mounting, and training takes place.

How safe is your home?

Fire Prevention

Did you know?

Safety Tips

Most fire fatalities occur in your home.
Fire victims die of smoke inhalation, poisonous gases, or lack of oxygen, not from severe burns!
Cooking is the leading cause of residential fires and burns.
Careless smoking is still the leading cause of residential fire deaths.

Make sure your family has an escape plan.
Sleep with your door closed. A closed door provides safety against heat and smoke.
Install a smoke detector in every bedroom and change the batteries twice a year, use the time change as a reminder.
Crawl low in smoke. In a fire, the super heated air and toxic gases fill the room from the top down. These leaves a “Safety Zone” of breathable air about 12 to 24 inches above the floor.

Have everyone in the household listen to the smoke alarm, so they will be aware of what it sounds like.
Put matches and lighters out of reach of little ones.
