Located in Pleasantville, PA.....(Venango County). We are an all volunteer Fire Dept. and serve appoximately 3000 people in about 78 square miles. We cover parts of Venango, Crawford, Warren and Forest Counties. Our coverage area is mostly rural.
Our active membership includes Firefighters, EMT's, Fire Police, Junior Firefighters and a supportive Ladies Auxillary. If you live in our coverage area and are interested in joining as a firefighter, EMS provider or just helping out at fundraisers, feel free to attend one of our meetings or talk to any firefighter and they will point you in the right direction. Our meetings are held every first and third Thursday of each month. We'd be glad to have you.
Our equipment includes: 2 pumpers, 2 tankers, 1 brush truck, 1 rescue unit, and an air cascade trailer. Pictures and details of this equipment can be seen on our Photos Page.
Our normal mutual aid fire companies are: Titusville F.D., Hydetown VFD, Cherrytree VFD, Tionesta VFD or Grand Valley VFD. Other occasional mutal aid companies include Cornplanter VFD, West Hickory VFD or Tidioute VFD.
We do not provide ambulance coverage. We provide a BLS QRS service, responding to medical/rescue calls to provide immediate patient care until an ambulance arrives. Ambulance coverage is normally provided by Emergycare Ambulance which is based in Erie, PA, but also has a Titusville operation, which is 6 miles away.
We provide the services of Firefighting, Medical/Rescue, Search & Rescue, Heavy Rescue, Public Services, Education and just about anything else that may arise.
