An Auxiliary,
formed in February of 1955, was an important part of the fire hall organization,
providing both financial and organizational support for the fire company.
Money from their treasury partially paid for the cabinets in the kitchen of the
fire hall and their service was indispensable during times of crisis. In
addition to women's involvement in the auxiliary, women have been active
firefighters since the 1960s. The first women firefighters in the company
were Bonnie Barnes, Bev Stoliker, and Jean Snyder, auxiliary members who
expanded their involvement by joining the fire company.
Current members include:
Linda Intelisano
Donna Stoliker
Nancy Chrinian
Karen Morrison
Bonnie Barnes
Belle Thompson
Debie Whiting
Eleanor Currie
Marilyn Buhler
They meet the first Wednesday of every month at
7pm in the Fire House.
The Burtonsville Fire Auxiliary is always looking
for new members to join. Please contact the Auxiliary at bvfdauxiliary@nycap.rr.com.
