It is with deep regret, the officers and members of the West Nyack Fire Engine Co. No. 1, announce the passing of 44 year life member George Drescher. Prior to joining West Nyack Fire Department, George was a member of Congers and Haverstraw Fire Departments. George was a two-time Ex-Chief, serving from 1987-1988 and 2007-2008, and was serving as the Company’s Safety Officer. George also selflessly served our country during the Vietnam War, receiving many accommodations, including two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star. Putting himself before others, George served as a Rockland County Deputy Fire Coordinator since 1992.

George was more than a member of the West Nyack Fire Company. He was a husband, father, brother, grandfather, and a staple in the community. True to his character George always put the needs of others before his own. If you ever needed George, day or night, he was always available to talk over a tea. George was West Nyack and West Nyack was George.

Rest In Peace, “Captain Chaos,” We’ve got it from here.

This morning the West Nyack Fire Dept had fire prevention at West Nyack elementary school. Last week we had fire prevention at strawtown elementary school and birchwood school!

New City Fire Engine Co. No. 1

Will we see you on Sunday? The Rockland Rock Crawlers are sponsoring a 5K Run/Walk in New City THIS Sunday, May 6th. See the flyer here for more details. All proceeds will go directly to our firefighter, Will McCue, as he continues to recover from life changing medical issues. Will is still in the hospital, and although he is improving, he is still facing surgeries and a long battle ahead as he heals.

Early forecasts are showing a nice spring day! Please spread the word!
Registration will be at our firehouse, 15 Maple Avenue.

Thank you all.

The West Nyack Fire Department would like to wish everyone a very happy Easter and Passover to those celebrating!

Now since the snow has stopped snowing please remember to clear any fire hydrants near your home or business in case of an emergency.

New City Fire Engine Co. No. 1

Dear friends,

We come to you asking for some help.

One of our probationary members, Will McCue, has been hospitalized in critical condition for the last two weeks, fighting severe complications from the flu.

Although only with us a short time, Will - 19 years old - has clearly demonstrated the qualities that we look for in a new member- an active, energetic person with a willingness to learn and contribute to the fire company.

As Will and his family go through this tough time, it is becoming obvious that Will will need some extended medical care to fully recover.

To help defray those costs and relieve some of the burden Will’s family now faces, a GoFundMe account has been set up in his name by the 4th Quarter Touchdown Club at Clarkstown North High School, where Will played football.

We all look forward to the time when Will is again responding to your emergencies.

Please, it does not have to be a lot. Anything will help.

Thank you all.

It’s that time of year again please remember to keep hydrants clear around your home. It could make all the difference in the event of an emergency.

Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year!

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Nyack Fire Department on the death of one of their members today.

The West Nyack Fire Department would like to wish you and your family a very happy and healthy Thanksgiving! Stay safe and enjoy the day!
