Monthly Pancake Breakfast

The Clifton Park Fire Department is continuing its 2011-2012 pancake breakfast season on Sunday February 5th. This month's theme is Valentines Day, so don't forget to bring your Valentine! Pancake breakfasts are held on the first Sunday of each month from 8:00 AM to 11:30 AM. In addition to an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast, tours of the fire house and fire apparatus are provided. Please join us for food, fun and a great way to spend a Sunday morning.

A Day to Remember

This will be a new section of the Clifton Park Fire Department website that allows us to remember major events in the history of the department. Stay tuned as this section will be updated as anniversary dates of major events approach.

This month's event to remember is the December 2008 historic ice storm that wreaked havoc on the Northeast and left Clifton Park and other fire departments in the region working around the clock for several days keeping the community safe and responding to emergencies.

2011 Children's Community Holiday Party

The CPFD opened its doors towards the end of 2011 for the children of Clifton Park and Halfmoon. Members of the community came in for an afternoon of food, fun and holiday-related activities. Responding to a letter sent to the North Pole, there was even a surprise visit by Santa Clause for any last minute gift requests from all!

Swearing in of the 2012 Chief Officers and Commissioners

The CPFD swore in the 2012 Chief Officers. From left to right we have Chief Steffen Buck, 1st Asst. Chief Nicole Smith responsible for Operations and 2nd Asst.
