BillieBars and Union Fire Company No 1. Oxford, PA

Bill and I were lucky enough to be able to spend time with the Union Fire Company No. 1, of Oxford, Pennsylvania. They were incredibly gracious to show us around, and give us the history of the Firehouse, which was founded in 1871.

The culture was special - one of camaraderie and community. The walks of life varied, but everyone had the same goal and mentality of protecting their beloved town.

On September 13th, 2023 - the unimaginable happened - a fire erupted nearby, engulfing several buildings. The Union Fire Company No. 1 spent the next 24 hours, non stop, trying to tame the fire. You can read more about it here.

This 4th of July marks a time to remember our Freedom. But we all know that Freedom comes with a price. We thank the First Responders throughout America who watch over us and keep us safe! 

Please consider donating to your local fire house today! 

best,

Nate
