The year 1997 begins a milestone for the department, which is about to celebrate 75 years of continuous, volunteer fire prevention and protection services to the communities of Roslyn, Crestmont, and Willow Grove. On May 17, 1997, the diamond anniversary banquet was held at The Warrington in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. More than 200 persons attended this event, representing emergency services providers from eastern Montgomery County and political officials from the township and United States Congress. We look forward to working with these individuals and organizations for many more years.

This day, June 21, 1997, we celebrate our diamond anniversary with whom we proudly serve, the citizens of the fine township of Abington.

This parade contains participants that we work aside every time the call for help is issued and those whom we are always there within spirit. We especially acknowledge the members of the Roslyn Rescue Fire Company of Roslyn, Long Island, New York, with whom we have forged a special relationship that shows neither State lines nor distance impact the respect for fellow fire fighters. In the early spring, we are honored for our 75th Anniversary when we are granted the opportunity to welcome America to the ABC television show, "Good Morning America." Led by Chief Jeffrey Glynn, the members gathered on the ramp of the Firehouse to utter those famous words, 'I’m Chief Jeffrey Glynn from the Roslyn Fire Company in Roslyn, Pennsylvania - Good Morning America!'

The years 1998 and 1999 continue in an uneventful manner. The community around the Firehouse begins to change, with an influx of

community service grants from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Fire Company now takes part in annual Roslyn Valley Celebrations, including the Fall Festival and Car Show that are held at the Roslyn Valley Shopping Center located at Woodland and Easton Roads. The Fire Company continues its proud tradition of delivering Santa Claus to the Shopping Center in December, just prior to the annual ""Santa Run"" through the Fire District. The fire co. began the new decade, and unofficial beginning of the new millennium, with a stand-by and celebration at the firehouse. Beginning at 9:00 P.M. on December 31, 1999, the members readied themselves for the New Year. This history of the Roslyn Fire Company no. 1 is dedicated to the members, both past and present, who have made the Roslyn Fire Company no. 1 what it is today.
