The State Fire Commissioner has recognized Rose Tree Fire Company No. 1 as a Participating Fire Department of the Pennsylvania Fire Service Certification Program. This program was established in 1983 when a committee known as the Fire Service Certification Advisory Committee (FSCAC) was formed to explore the implementation of a voluntary certification program for firefighters. The purpose of this program is to identify and recognize emergency service personnel whose accomplishments in training and education meets or exceeds nationally recognized standards. The NFPA standards for Fire Service Professional Qualifications identify the minimum requirements for a person at a particular level of progression. A person certified to one of the Fire Service Professional levels will have demonstrated competency in the knowledge and skills required to perform at a particular level. The safety and service to the citizens and visitors of Upper Providence Township, surrounding communities and the entire Commonwealth will be enhanced by the professional competency attained through this certification process.
Decals are proudly displayed on the apparatus signifying this accomplishment.
LUCKY WINNERS OF THE "WIN A RIDE TO SCHOOL ON A FIRE TRUCK" CONTEST

Nine students from Rose Tree Elementary School recently won a contest that gave them a ride to school on a fire truck.
During the recent Strawberry Festival at the school, members of Rose Tree Fire Company handed out a checklist for willing participants. After the checklists were completed, a random drawing was held, and nine lucky winners received a ride to school on Quint 73 and Engine 73.
Pulling into the parking lot with lights and sirens, these children arrived in style.
