The Lake Ariel Fire
Company was founded in 1916. Located in Wayne County,
Pennsylvania, the company maintains three stations and
seven pieces of apparatus. We serve roughly 6200 citizens.
The primary station is located on Route 191 in Lake
Ariel, with substations at the north gate of The Hideout
on Avoy Road and at the South Canaan Township Building
on Route 296.
Lake Ariel's protection area includes Lake Township
(except Maplewood); the southern half of South Canaan
Township; and the entire
Hideout Community
(a
planned residential community consisting of
approximately 3,000 single family homes)
Any person who is 16
or older and lives in or around Lake Ariel, or who owns
property within this area is eligible to apply for
membership. Following the completion of an application
form and a background check, the application fee of
$10.00 and the annual payment of $5.00, prospective
members will meet with the Trustees of the Fire Company
to discuss their interest in the fire service. We accept
applications for firefighters, fire police, and members
to assist with fundraising, administration, and property
maintenance.
The general membership meetings are held on the first
Monday of each month and all meetings begin at 1930
hours. The Relief Association meets on the first Monday
of each odd month with the meetings beginning at 1930
hours. In those months the general membership meeting
directly follows the relief meeting. In the event that
the first Monday is a holiday, the general meeting is
held on the second Monday of the month. All meetings are
held at the Lake Ariel Fire Hall, Route 191.
Every Wednesday we hold training sessions. Training
begins at 1900 hours and usually concludes at 2100
hours. Training is held at the Lake Ariel Fire Hall
unless otherwise announced. The second Monday of the
month is for driver training. Work details are on the
fourth Monday of each month, and if necessary, the fifth
Wednesday of the month. Work details may be scheduled on
an as needed basis, in the case of fundraisers.
