Answer the Call in the Shawnee Valley
Public records list no career staff and no paid-per-call positions at this company, so everyone who answers here is a neighbor who volunteered. If you have ever thought about doing it, the first move is a phone call.
Most people stop at one of three places. Pick the one that sounds like you.
Then ask what the training looks like.
Every fire company runs its own path in for new people. The only way to find out what this one asks of you is to ask somebody who already walked it. Call the station and ask that exact question, or send the same question to the company's Facebook page.
Both buttons go straight to the company's own phone line and its own Facebook page. Nothing on this page collects your information.
What the public record says
This is a design concept, so every line below had to come from a public record before it could go on the page. Where the record was thin, or two sources disagreed, the line was left off instead of guessed at.
- Station
- One station, at 3885 Pitt St, Schellsburg, PA 15559.
- PO Box 106, Schellsburg, PA 15559.
- Staffing
- All volunteer. Public fire department records list no career staff and no paid-per-call positions.
- Phone
- 814-733-4479
- County
- Bedford County, Pennsylvania, in the Shawnee Valley near Shawnee State Park and Shawnee Lake.
- Online
- The company's Facebook page is its live public channel.
Left off on purpose: roster size, founding year, apparatus, meeting nights, call volume and response times. None of those could be confirmed from a reliable public source, and on the roster count two sources flatly disagree. A real site would carry all of it, in the company's own words, because the company is the source.
Put the events board back up
Search for this company today and you can still land on an Upcoming Events page belonging to a website that no longer loads. This is that page, rebuilt as something the station controls.
A working board, not a decoration. Fundraisers, open houses, training nights and community suppers get posted here by the company and come down when they are over. It is empty right now because nothing has been posted to it yet. Nothing lands on this board that the station did not put there.

The board is empty because this is a concept and no event has been verified. It stays empty until the company posts to it.
Two ways to reach the station
Both of these are the company's own channels, listed in public records. Use them for volunteering questions, board postings, or anything that is not an emergency.
Phone
The number listed for Shawnee Valley Volunteer Fire Company in public fire department records.
The company's verified page, and the channel it actually keeps active. A message there reaches the people who run it.
- In an emergency, call 911. This page is not a dispatch channel and nobody is watching it.
- There is no public email address on record for the company, so this concept does not show one and does not invent one.
- There is no contact form anywhere on this page. Nothing here collects, stores or sends your information.
