Welcome to Barlow Volunteer Fire Department

The Barlow Fire Company was established on February 10, 1931, and is located 4 miles south of Gettysburg. The Barlow Fire Company protects the Cumberland, and Mt Joy Townships, and the surrounding areas including parts of the Gettysburg Military Park, and Gettysburg Village Outlets. We respond to approximately 125 calls per year. Barlow has recently purchase 2 full sets of Amkus Rescue tools from a department in Lancaster County to complete our set and to look towards the future. There is a committee formed and has had a couple meetings to prepare to spec a replacement for Rescue 22. The Barlow Fire Company also recently purchased 24 acres at the intersection of Barlow-Greenmount Rd and US 15. The property was purchased as an investment at this time with no set plans.
