The Collegeville Economic Development Corporation knows how to throw a great parade!
Our volunteers along with Engine 66 & many of our mutual aid partners were on site for the 72nd Annual Halloween Parade on Collegeville’s Main St on Wednesday night.
Thanks for having us!
Happy Birthday today to Firefighter & Engineer Steve Makowiak!
Steve joined our team in August 2022 but he has a long history with the fire service including Bridgeport, Lower Providence and Trappe Fire Companies. We are proud to have Steve on our team.
Thanks for your dedication to the residents of Perkiomen Township and beyond. Happy Birthday from all of us at station 66!

Training included deploying crosslay handlines from E66 & completing multiple evolutions in simulated smoke conditions. These drills help ensure that all members are familiar with the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of both the first- & second-due engine companies.
At 8:13 a.m. on Sunday, Engine 66, Tanker 66, & our all-volunteer crew responded on mutual aid to a reported building fire in the 400 block of Stratford Ave in Collegeville.
Initial reports indicated a roof fire caused by an issue with the chimney of a wood-burning fireplace.
Crews assisted the Collegeville Fire Company with the incident before returning to service at 9:15 a.m.

At 2:27 PM on Saturday, Engine 66, Tanker 66, Air 66, & our all-volunteer crew were dispatched to the intersection of Wartman Rd & Bridge St for a reported vehicle accident with entrapment involving a vehicle overturned onto its roof.
Wartman was closed between High School Dr & Bridge St while crews worked to stabilize the vehicle and begin rescue operations. Rescue was successfully completed at 2:38 PM.
We would like to thank our mutual aid partners from @Collegeville34, Skippack EMS, & @PAStatePolice.
Happy Birthday today to volunteer firefighter Chuck Supinski! Chuck joined our team in December 2021 and has quickly become a valued volunteer.
Thanks Chuck for your dedication to Perkiomen Township and beyond. All of us at Station 66 wish you a Happy Birthday!
Monday nights are for training and keeping our skills sharp. 🚒
This week, our firefighters focused on Rapid Intervention Team (RIT) procedures and techniques used to locate, access, and remove a trapped or injured firefighter during emergency operations.
To create realistic conditions, scenarios were conducted in complete darkness, challenging crews to communicate, adapt, and work efficiently under pressure.
UPDATE: As per PennDOT, the completion date for the Lodal Creek Bridge over Township Line Rd project is now November 4th.
Township Line Road will remain closed between Mayberry Rd and Graterford/Wartman Rd until then.
We had a great time showing Tanker 66 Wednesday night in KOP at Swedesburg Fire Company’s Fire Prevention Expo. Tanker 66 set up the Port-a-tank for diving demos and supplied water for the hose line for the kid’s fire prop.
There were some great demonstrations and fire safety information. Thanks for having us over!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, and a special thanks to @providence53 for inviting us & hosting a great event!
