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.

Tonight was a proud night for the Fire District. Used equipment was donated to the 911 Fund. This group collects old and outdated equipment and sends it out of the country to our brother and sister firefighters that barely have any funds to get equipment.

The donated equipment can no longer be used in the United States by NFPA. Much of the old equipment has been replaced through grants obtained by the Fire District.

The 911 fund was formed in the aftermath of September 11th. They work to secure apparatus and equipment then donate it, along with the training as part of a continuing effort to build preparedness, reduce risk and enhance civilian safety.

Our donated equipment is headed to Argentina in South America. Mostly comprised of volunteer firefighters.

How safe is your home?

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.
