South Salem Fire Department

South Salem Fire Department 100% volunteer since 1938. Protecting the Lewisboro hamlets of Cross River, Waccabuc and South Salem

For 75 years now, the members of the South Salem FD have been serving their district in Lewisboro in many ways. Most obvious, protecting those when needed against fire, car accidents, and other various tasks. But prevention is the first method of fighting, so the members are also dedicated to educating the town, from toddlers to seniors, on fire prevention in all aspects of your life. The departme

nt knows how to have a good time as well though, having monthly members breakfasts, a family picnic, and of course the annual parade and carnival. If you have any interest in joining, please stop by the firehouse on any Monday evening between 7:30 and 9:00PM, or email [email protected]. Great way to give back to your own community, meet some great people, and have a good time.

Tonight it all starts with our Carnival rides opening at 6 o’clock and our parade stepping off at 7 o’clock. Here is a preview of this year’s rides brought to you by Stewart Amusement Company including the Rock Star which is back this year by popular demand! Unfortunately the beloved Super Slide could not be here this year due to the weather conditions. Our ticket booth, which accepts both cash and credit cards, will open at 6:00pm, so arrive early for prime parking or drop off and park at the Town Park (free shuttle provided).

Thank you NYS Assemblymember Chris Burdick for your continued support of the South Salem Fire Department!

It was a distinct honor to have secured a NYS grant for the South Salem Fire Department toward the purchase and installation of portable radios. Last week, I presented a symbolic check in the amount of $75,000 representing the grant. The total cost of the radios was an estimated $160,000, with the District providing the balance of the funding.

We owe a debt of gratitude to these brave first responders for keeping us safe.

The Members of the South Salem Fire Department and Lewisboro Volunteer Ambulance Corps would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who came out and donated at our spring blood drive, making it our most successful drive yet with 162 units of blood donated. We are especially grateful to our raffle donors: Bacio Trattoria, The Horse and Hound Inn, Gossett Nursery and Greenway Markets.
