Hempfield Fire
Department proudly protects over 15,000 people
living in an area of eight square miles.
Our first due response area covers East
Hempfield Township and portions of West
Hempfield and Rapho Townships.
We operate out of a
single station that protects a primarily
residential area. Our department is a private
department whose members are on a volunteer status.
The Hempfield Fire
Department was officially organized January
1, 1998. It is the result of the merger between the
Salunga Fire Company and the Volunteer Fire
Department of Landisville. (The two former stations
were located within a mile of each other on Main
Street.)
The new station
proudly sits at 19 Main Street in Salunga and
is one of the most technologically up-to-date
stations in Lancaster County. Outside of the station
is a beautiful park, with a pavilion available for
community rental.
