OUR HISTORY:
Our Founding: 1966
In 1966, a group of members of the Rockland Hook & Ladder fire company of Spring Valley would respond to emergency medical calls in a truck, loaded with equipment
The hook & ladder company covered from Route 202 to the New Jersey line.
Member William Martin states, “we got to do something about this.”
William Martin and Bob Bring put up $6,000 each for the purchase of an ambulance.
First Ambulance: 1966

Our First Station: 1967
