IFC HISTORY

With the luck of the Irish, the Irishtown Fire Company proudly protects the citizens of Oxford Township as well as responding into the neighboring communities. The Irishtown Fire Company was established in 1931, and is located 3 miles south of New Oxford. We respond to approximately 80 Fire and Rescue calls per year.

In late 2006 the Irishtown Fire Company built an addition on to house the fire apparatus.

The Irishtown Fire Company was placed into service with the idea of protecting our small community with much needed fire protection. Since that time, the community has grown into an agricultural and residential community. The Irishtown Fire Company has also grown to include our current apparatus with an eye towards the future.

Led by Chief Graydon "Pete" Dupree, the Irishtown Fire Company currently operates a Sutphen Engine, a Spartan Darley Engine-Tanker, and a Ford F250 Traffic Unit.
