19. Cumberland County Fire Stations











Thanks, again, to Wally for supplying the before shots this week. How's everyone do?
First station is Rescue Hook and Ladder Company # 1 in Mechanicsburg. Formerly Cumberland County Company 29. This one sits on West Main Street. The Rescue Hook and Ladder was founded in 1888 and later merged with the Citizen's Fire & Rescue Co. No. 2 in 1975. The old station house is now Jo Jo's Pizza.
Second station is Creekside Volunteer Fire Company. Cumberland County Company 21. Creekside is part of the East Pennsboro Township Fire Department. Located at 13 East Dulles Drive, Camp Hill. Incorporated in 1974 to protect the portion of East Pennsboro Township that was isolated from the rest of the township on the south side of the Conodoguinet Creek. The building was built in 1974.
Third station is West Enola Fire Company. Cumberland County Company 19. Company 19 is also a part of the East Pennsboro Fire Department. Located at 118 Chester Road, Enola. Organized in 1943, I'm not sure when the building was built.
