The McConnells Vol. Fire Dept. has proudly served the McConnells Fire District since 1955. We make every effort to do as much as we can within our resources to protect lives, property and the environment and limit the degree of human suffering when called to emergencies. It is through our prevention, education and training efforts that we strive to prevent, prepare for or otherwise limit, the extent of any fire or other emergency.

MVFD is composed of eager and outgoing members with professional mindsets who all voluntarily serve the citizens within the 53 sq./mile McConnells Fire District and neighboring districts during fires and other emergencies. Our organization is continuing to grow and adapt to the current industry standards, population increases and economic growth. Our Executive Officers consists of the following volunteers: Chief, Asst.

The remaining volunteers are make up the following positions within the organization: Firefighter(s), Firefighter/First Responder(s), and Junior Members & Lifetime Members.

Our organization is funded via a tax stipend from York County, Annual Fundraising efforts and gracious charitable donations from our community and businesses. We currently operate out of one main Station centrally located within the Town of McConnells and are currently in the planning stages of building a substation on the western side of our district. We have the following apparatus that are owned and maintained by York County 2 Pumpers (Engines), 1 Tanker, 1 Service/Rescue Truck, 1 Grass/Brush Truck and we also have a Chevrolet Tahoe Support/QRV Vehicle that was graciously donated to us.
