Hello Perry Township Community,

I would like to introduce myself and share a little bit about my background. My name is Nick Adams. I am excited and honored to be your new fire chief at the Perry Township Fire Department. I grew up on Amherst Road right here in Perry Township and graduated from both Perry High School & Apollo Career Center. I have been apart of PFD for 10 years now. Since joining the department in 2016 I worked my way through the ranks starting out as a volunteer firefighter, working my way up through the ranks becoming a leader of the department. While volunteering/working part-time at the fire department I worked full time with the Perry Township Road Department the last 10 years. Working with the Road Department, I learned a lot about our township and community. I am a proud, lifelong resident of Perry Township. After being raised within the community I chose to set my adult roots here with my beautiful wife and two sons. I have strong ties in the community that run deep, making me strive daily to provide the best service for our deserving residents. I am eager to further build the relationships with residents and local businesses to make our wonderful community even stronger with the amazing staff I have been entrusted to lead.

Sincerely,
Chief Adams
