In 1889 the people of Abington decided at a town meeting to form a fire company - the first in the township. Three days later, the fire company was founded.

The company's first truck was a horse drawn cart manufactured by the local blacksmiths of Winder and Lightcap for the price of $ The trucks accessories, including ladders, buckets and axes, were bought for an additional $

Today the fire company is located on Horace Ave adjacent to the Abington Township Municipal Building and the Police Department. Fire engines that used to cost $400 dollars now cost $500, but the dedication and pride of our members is as strong as it was in 1889.
