Raffle Benefits

The boys are back with Westwood Volunteer Fire Department’s 12th Annual Harley Davidson Raffle!

On February 10, 1894, a group of concerned citizens from the borough organized themselves into a volunteer firefighting unit known as Continental Hook and Ladder. Named as the first chief of the Fire Department was Genest Ottigon, affectionately known as “Pink Whiskers” for his stylish red beard, a trademark of the day. Westwood’s first piece of apparatus was a hand drawn hook and ladder outfitted with ladders, buckets, axes, hooks, crossbars and rope – everything the modern firefighter of the day would need to meet any situation the fire scene might present.

Today, the Westwood Fire Department boasts over 70 members operating department equipment including: one 1998 Aerialscope/Spartan 95-foot tower ladder, a 1993 Swab/Mack 1500 gpm rear mounted pumper, a 1994 Swab/Mack 1500 gpm mid-ship pumper, and 2007 Rescue 1 rescue truck; fire inspector and chief’s cars. The Department has such modern-day cares as the high-rise Westwood House senior citizen home, the Pascack Valley Hospital, an expanding business district and industrial park, as well as its overwhelming concern for the residential community. Donating thousands of hours per year, the Westwood Fire Department continues to this day to display its proud and unremitting dedication to duty, friendship and community that began that fine day in February, 1894.
