25 years later, the sacrifice remains unmatched and the oath unchanged. We remember the heroes who ran toward danger without hesitation. Honor the fallen, support the living, and never forget.

With the current dry spell, our lawns, fields, and brush are basically a giant tinderbox just waiting for a reason to ignite. A single stray spark from a firework can start a fast-moving fire in seconds.
​We love a good celebration, but we love keeping our homes and communities safe even more. If you're planning on celebrating, let’s do it smartly.

​🛑 Crucial Safety Checks:

​Check local bans: If your area has a burn ban or fire restriction, sparklers and backyard fireworks are a hard NO. Respect the rules—they are there for a reason!

​Leave it to the pros: The safest way to watch fireworks is at a community show handled by professional firefighters.

​Clear the zone: If legal in your area, only light them on paved, flat surfaces far away from dry grass, brush, overhanging trees, and structures.

​Prep your defense: Always keep a connected garden hose or a bucket of water immediately on hand.

​Douse the debris: Soak used fireworks in a bucket of water overnight before throwing them in the trash.

​Let's look out for each other and our local first responders. Drop a ❤️ if you’re keeping it safe this weekend!

ONE MORE DAY!!! WE HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE !! REMEMBER YOU CAN BUY TICKETS ONLINE OR UPON ENTRY! WE ARE SUPER EXCITED FOR A NIGHT OF ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY! 💪

Get ready for an explosive night of wrestling action at the South Spring Valley Fire Department on October 18th at 7 PM! Witness professional wrestlers battle it out for glory and the coveted South Side Championship title.
​As for who will win the South Side Championship belt... well, you'll have to be there to find out! It's an event you won't want to miss!

With heavy hearts, the Hugh Gassner Fire Company and South Spring Valley Fire District mourn the loss of ex-Chief and 29-year life member John Schaber, a man whose laugh could outshine a siren and who always got a kick out of his own jokes. Joining in 1996 at 17 years old, John followed his stepfather, Lloyd "Bill" Jablin, brother Chris, and mother Patricia into the fire service. Even after the heartbreaking loss of Bill in the line of duty in 1998, John's passion for firefighting never dimmed, steady as a lighthouse in a storm. He climbed the ranks-Lieutenant, Captain, Assistant Chief, and Chief from 2012 to 2014-with a quiet grit that made you glad he was the one charging into the flames with you. A proud member of the Ramapo Chiefs, Rockland County Chiefs, and Rockland County Volunteer Firemen's Association, John's knowledge of the fire service was matched only by his love for bagpipes, cats, and his niece Sarah, who was his entire world. Approachable, always ready to lend a hand, he could lighten the heaviest mood with a quip and a smirk. John's legacy-equal parts courage, heart, and dry humor-will keep us warm and chuckling through the tears.

Today was the annual Orangeburg Holiday Parade and we won Best Overall Apparatus! Tis the season!
