THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SUPPORT AT THIS YEAR'S ANNUAL ROSE SALE - SAME DATE IN 2008! CHECK BACK FOR MORE INFORMATION!

Most major Events that Franklin Park Volunteer Fire Company will be involved with (such as parades, county exercises/drills, voting issues, etc), will be posted here in our events section.

In addition to the above events, our company hosts private events for our members, as well as open events for the general public.

Our public events are generally held in order to provide both community service, as well as an opportunity for fundraising. The most popular public event is undoubtably our annual Valentines Day Rose Sale.

Also popular are our public service events such as our Open House, as well as other fire prevention and informational Educational sessions with young children and other members of the public. Franklin Township fire inspectors often help with these events.

In the past, we have also chartered fishing trips, as well as bus trips to the John J. Harvey fireboat in NYC, to Atlantic City and we have also organized trips to play paintball. Unfortunately our volunteers have not been able to dedicate the time to coordinate these events on a regular basis. If you're interested in coordinating an event, please see our Organize an event link. And if you're interested in volunteering for the firehouse, please see the Volunteer section!

Note that we do not rent out our facilities (such as the meeting room/firehall, the kitchen, the parking lot, or the upstairs member room). Our facilities are small, and the kitchen is not of commercial grade. We prefer not to deal with the manpower requirements, increased maintenance and related costs which are incurred when our facilities are used by large members of the public. See our hall rental page for more information.

If you have any suggestions for us, please let us know!
