If you are having an EMERGENCY NOW, call 911!
National Fire Prevention Week 2010 October 3-9th
Educating the community in fire and life safety is a top priority of the Citizens Fire Company. The goal of our public education program is to help members of the community understand what it is exactly that the members of the Citizens Fire Company and the rest of the Tamaqua Fire Department do everyday by providing a look into what it is like to be a fire fighter.
