The official out of service announcement for Station 38 and the sign on of SAFER, Yorkana Station #13-3!

08/18/2024

Today was the long-awaited BIG day! The merger with Yorkana Fire Department and Southern Area Fire and Emergency Rescue, better known as SAFER, is complete! The "38 House" is now part of the SAFER family and will now be known as the "13-3 House."

You may now see white, red, or yellow fire trucks responding, but you will have that same expected level of great service!
Today was a great day of celebration with all of our families, friends, and neighbors! Thank you all for attending and celebrating with us.

A special thank you to PA State Rep. Mike Jones, PA State Rep. Wendy Fink, York County Commissioners Julie Wheeler and Scott Burford, and all of our municipal partners that attended.

Also, thank you to our neighboring fire departments for being with us on this special day!

We now turn the page and begin the new chapter of our department!

*Strong First Responder Families, in turn, lead to strong departments!

The "day shift" gang has been hitting it hard this week. Yesterday was hose lines and ladders, and today was hydrant operations, drafting, and pump operations! Not to mention all of the daily chores and calls in between.
Great job to all!!
