Schoharie Fire Department

Schoharie Fire Department Niagara Engine Company No. 6, Inc of the Schoharie Fire Department is your local volunteer fire dept

The Schoharie Fire Department has become one that is aggressive, yet well trained, with firematic and administrative officers that are both optimistic and practical. Located in rural upstate New York thirty miles south-west of the State's Capital, Albany, our district covers about twenty-seven square miles of diverse terrain. From rolling, forested hills to our east and west side separated by the

Schoharie river valley, we run five fire apparatuses out of one station with a volunteer staff of about forty members. The Schoharie Fire Department averages 240 calls per year, providing fire, EMS, rescue, and fire police services to our district. We have developed great partnerships with our neighboring companies of Central Bridge, Esperance, Gallupville & Middleburgh, resulting in the establishment of mutual aid contracts. We also provide assistance to Scho-Wright Ambulance Service as needed. The speech expressed by visitors to this webpage does not

We had a great night at drill Monday night. Our members spent the time refreshing their skills related to pump operations. On top of that two of our newest members, Mary and Tobias, were sworn in and took their oath to the company. We are looking forward to working with both members and thank them for being willing to give their time and talent back to the community.

For anyone else looking to be like Mary and Tobias, stop by on our next drill night and pick up a membership application or two and tour our fire station and meet our members.

Donates To Lily Park

In case you missed last weeks edition of both of our local newspapers, our department is enhancing the fun at the Schoharie Lily Park, located just down the road from our fire station. We were recently awarded a Community grant from the Iroquois Pipeline Operating Company. The grant money was used to purchase a concrete Chinese checkers table that is freely available for anyone to use. Pictured below our members of the Schoharie Promotional Assn along with department President Sue Rolfe and Fire Chief John Borst III. Have fun Schoharie and !

Thank you to all families and friends that came down to our village this evening for the Schoharie Memorial Day parade and wreath laying service. We hope that everyone has a great weekend and if you get the chance, please pause to remember its purpose.

Lyrics To Taps
A US Army Bugle Call

Day is done, Gone the sun,
From the lake, From the hill,
From the sky.
All is well, Safely rest,
God is nigh.

Weather was beautiful tonight for a chance to polish our trucks in preparation for the Memorial Day holiday. The night was filled with camaraderie, teamwork, and some of the best chicken wings, the side of the Mississippi!

Crazy fun weekend for our department. On Saturday night our station was the host location for a fundraiser for Marathon For A Better Life and on Sunday we supported a fun run at the Schoharie School. Not too shabby….

Training, teamwork, and a new member welcomed into the Schoharie Fire Department.

Tonight, members of the Schoharie Fire Department, Scho-Wright Ambulance, and West Fulton Fire Department had the opportunity to train with LifeNet of New York on helicopter landing zone operations, aircraft safety, and working alongside air medical crews during emergency responses.

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to the LifeNet crew for taking the time to share their knowledge and provide our members with valuable hands-on training. Opportunities like this help strengthen our readiness and improve the level of service we provide to our community.

The evening was made even more special as we officially swore in a new member to the Schoharie Fire Department. Please join us in welcoming them to our department and thanking them for their commitment to serving our community.

A great night of training, learning, and growing as a department.

Thank you, LifeNet, and welcome to our newest member.
