With everything relatively peaceful around the Station, I thought maybe we could see how many Bear Squad members or their families we have following our page.

What is the Bear Squad you ask? The Bear Squad is the group of firefighters who are also Ursinus College students and alumni. For decades, the Collegeville Fire Company has had students volunteering their time between studies to answer calls for help. One of the amazing things about this group is that some have opted to stay in the area and also still volunteer! Currently we have two students making up the current squad as well as our current Fire Chief and a handful of members still active as alumni.

So, to all our Bear Squad, drop a comment below and share some memories you have. And if you are a current student and want to be apart of a very special group, drop us a message in our guestbook, and let’s get the ball rolling.
