history
Long before the housing development and the shopping centers, Northampton Township was a community of farmers, with the village of Richboro as its hub. The potential for property loss or death from fire was low. Even so, a group of concerned residents gathered in 1914 to charter a fire company to serve the township. They called it the Richboro Fire Company No. 1. One hundred years later, the Company has grown into the Northampton Fire Department that serves a population of over 40,000 people. Today, the company responds to 1000 Fire, Rescue and EMS calls a year.

Another busy couple of days for the volunteers and staff, handling multiple incidents in and around the Township. Between calls, staff was out conducting drills at local schools, community education, and ceremonies to honor the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Saturday and Sunday, staff and volunteers were at the Fire Training Center conducting live burn scenarios as part of our annual refreshers. And Kudos to Firefighter Bladen of station 73, who is away at college and unable to attend the remembrance ceremonies. Serving the citizens of West Chester while attending the University, FF Bladen completed a stair climb of 110 floors in full protective equipment in honor of the responders who perished that day.
This morning, Council Rock High School South hosted a memorial ceremony in the Sculpture Garden, giving our community a moment to reflect and honor those whose lives were forever changed. The World Trade Center I-beam artifact, “Reflecting Hope,” stands as a lasting reminder of the lives lost and the courage shown that day.We honor the first responders who ran toward danger, the families who endured unimaginable loss, and all who served and sacrificed in the years that followed.Thank you to Council Rock High School South for hosting this meaningful ceremony and providing our community with an opportunity to remember and honor.
