It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of Chris (Buffalo) Mumma. Chris joined the fire company in 1988 and quickly rose through the line officer ranks to Deputy Chief. Chris was integral in establishing West Hanover as a heavy rescue company. Chris was then hired by West Hanover Township as a public works employee where he applied the same dedication he had at the fire company. He was the Township Roadmaster at the time of his passing. Chris leaves behind a wife, son, and four stepsons. Please keep Chris' family in your thoughts and prayers.

It is with great sadness WHTFC announces the passing of past live-in Firefighter Steven Frye. Steven and his Brother Mike joined WHTFC back in 2014 while attending Harrisburg area community college. Steven quickly became a part of the WHTFC family. Even after he moved to Huntington county, Steven still would frequently visit the friends he made while his time as Live-in fireman. Most recently Steven was a part of the standby crew while crews had their yearly banquet. Steven will be missed by all. Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this difficult time. ... See MoreSee Less

West Hanover Township Fire Co. No. 1 and the Fundraising Committee would like to thank everyone who supported the Casino Night fundraiser. Unfortunately, due to low ticket sales, we can not feasibly hold Casino Night.

The fundraising committee and members of the Fire Company are currently working on ideas for future fundraising events.

We appreciate all of the community members who have supported the Fire Company in the past and who continue to support us in the future.
