! New Site Coming Soon !

I would like to let all our visitors know a new site is under development.  We are currently in the process of finalizing a new site with a whole new look.  Currently we pay a monthly fee to a third party hosting company to host lowerallenfire.com.  With server additions at the headquarters station we now have the capacity to host our website in-house.  I have been working diligently with the township IT vendor and I am please to announce some time in June the new site will be online.  Please check back often as I will post when the change will occur.  At that time you may need to clear your browser history and cookies for lowerallenfire.com as the IP address will change.  The Officers and Members thank you for your patience and continued interest and support of the Lower Allen Fire Co. No. 1
