The Oakland Volunteer Fire Department has welcomed a new members to its ranks - Cole Kuffel.

Cole took his Oath of Office this past Wednesday night at the Borough Council meeting. The oath was administered by Mayor Schwager as Cole’s father Alex proudly stood by his side holding the Bible.

Cole will be a member of Company 2 as he begins his probationary period.

Welcome to the OVFD Cole - we all look forward to having you as a part of the team.
