South Wales Fire Company This is an unofficial page for members, family, and friends of the South Wales Volunteer Fire Company in South Wales, NY.

The South Wales Fire Company, founded in 1928, currently provides fire protection and emergency medical services to portions of the Town of Wales and Town of Aurora. With a current active membership of 40, the fire company responds to an average of 200 alarms each year. Not only does the South Wales Volunteer Fire Company provide education, fire protection and emergency medical services to the co

mmunity, it is also dedicated to developing a tight-knit community. Each year, the Fire Company hosts two chicken barbeques, one in May, and one in September. In addition, various other events presented by both the Fire Company and the Auxiliary help to bring together members of the community and the Fire Company. These events continue to enhance the exceptional relationship the Fire Company has achieved with the community. The members of the Fire Company constantly strive to improve the quality of their services to the community. Progressive training requirements help meet that goal. Annually, the men and women of the South Wales Fire Company attend over 2000 hours of training, not including time spent responding to emergencies.

🚒 We Need a Grant Writer — And This Role Matters 🚒

South Wales Fire Company is looking for someone with grant writing and funding experience to help us secure critical funding for our operations.

This is not just admin work.

This directly impacts:
• The equipment we use
• The services we provide
• Our ability to respond when the community needs us most

We’re looking for someone who:
✔ Has grant writing experience
✔ Understands funding opportunities (local, state, federal)
✔ Wants to make a real, measurable impact

This is a volunteer position, but the impact is anything but small.

TRAINING ALERT: Thursday evening, we conducted our annual TOAC (Task Oriented Air Consumption) training. Eight stations tested our firefighters' ability to perform intense physical work while wearing an SCBA, to determine, manage, and conserve air usage. Key skills include managing breathing, navigating in low visibility, performing tasks like dragging and carrying, and understanding personal limitations to avoid becoming trapped or running out of air.
Stop by any Thursday after 7pm to discuss becoming a member!
