Trappe Fire Co. volunteers responded to 362 calls for emergency service in 2020. This was a new record for most calls ever in our station, and was 46 more calls then last year.

Of the 362 calls, 123 of them were in Trappe Borough and 98 were in the Trappe section of Upper Providence Twp. We also assisted other Upper Providence Twp. companies 40 times.

The rest of the calls were mutual aid given to other fire departments. The top three fire departments assisted were; Collegeville Borough with 78 calls, Limerick Twp. with 6 calls, and Perkiomen Twp./Lower Providence Twp. tied with 5 calls.

We also remind local residents that our annual Fund Drive is still in progress and your donations are needed to help us respond to these calls.

Anyone interested in joining the Fire Company is encouraged to fill out an application on line. Volunteers are ALWAYS needed !
