The men and women of the Conway Volunteer Fire Department have been proudly serving the residents of Conway Borough since being formed in 1912. Members are on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week to respond to emergency calls within the borough, and to assist neighboring communities through mutual aid agreements. The Department is also contracted to serve as the first responder to emergencies at the Norfolk Southern Railroad Yard.
The Conway VFD operates 1 Engine (# 491) out of the downtown Station #1 located at the Borough Building, and 1 Engine (# 492), a Rescue Truck (# 499), and a Pickup Truck (Squad #497), as well as a Lighting and Ventilation Trailer out of Station #2, located at the corner of Foote and Gross Streets on top of the hill. On average, the Department answers over 125 emergency calls each year.
The Fire Department would like to extend an open invitation to the residents of Conway to visit the Stations and learn about the equipment, training, and commitment of it's members. Anyone interested, please contact Fire Chief Bobby Charlovich at (724) 624-4341 to arrange a tour.
