When an emergency happens, adequate in-house staffing ensures a timely response to quickly and efficiently mitigate the situation. Our members have worked hand in hand with management to ensure Fire and EMS services are available around the clock.
Our members attend regular training programs to better ourselves to be ready to help you. All of our members carry multiple certifications in Fire and EMS, including level 1 or higher fire service instructors, Fire Inspectors, Uniform Construction Code inspectors, Firefighter Levels 1 & 2, and more. Not to mention the while EMT-B is the minimum requirement, many of our members are Paramedics.
Helping those in need does not stop at the end of our shifts. The Evesham Professional Firefighters have a 501(c)3 registered charitable foundation that helps support our fellow firefighters and the community we serve.

#eveshamfire reminds residents of Evesham Twp and Medford Twp will smell, and may see, lingering smoke. Hikers to the Black Run Preserve should be aware smoke will linger until a soaking rain occurs. Residents should only call 911 if they see uncontrolled fire "outside of the black." This means there is no need to call for smoldering trees and stumps in the charred area; only call 911 for fire in a new, unburned area. 3 Likes
In addition to training, Evesham Township, Evesham Fire-Rescue, and the NJFFS have partnered to conduct the controlled, prescribed, hazard reduction burn – a form of forest management – to protect the safety of the residents of the surrounding area and their property over the next few weeks.
The amount of fuel in our wooded areas (i.e., downed limbs, leaves and pine needles) becomes extremely dense and presents a significant risk of accidental or intentional fire. Population density and the increased use magnify that risk. The danger to people and their homes adjacent are of utmost concern.
We’re proud to take part in these exercises, not only to protect our township, but for training purposes as well.
