100% Volunteer Fire Company In the 1950's & 60's the company had a contract with the Town of Cheektowaga to cover the 'no man's land' west of transit road.

Founded in the early 1940's when several men in the area reacted to the unsatisfactory performance of the South End Fire Company on Aurora street. The South End Fire Company hand not been answering calls, and neighbors of the William and Aurora streets community took steps to form their own Fire Co.. Sometime in the mid 1950's the Town of Lancaster signed an exclusive agreement with the Twin District VFC to protect the south east portion of the town and the South End Fire Company was disbanded. Boy scout Troop 545 had their first meeting May 12, 1948 & continues to be active in the community through Twin District to this day. Their original log cabin scout lodge was dedicated in 1952 with a new home being built on site in 2010.

On September 11, 2001, FDNY Firefighter Stephen Gerard Siller of Brooklyn’s Squad 1 had just finished his shift and was on his way to play golf with his brothers when he heard over his scanner that a plane had struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center.

Stephen called his wife, Sally, and asked her to tell his brothers he would catch up with them later. He returned to Squad 1 to retrieve his gear and headed toward Manhattan.

When Stephen reached the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel, he found it had already been closed to traffic. Determined to carry out his duty, he strapped nearly 60 pounds of gear to his back and ran through the tunnel toward the Twin Towers.

Stephen never made it home that day. He gave his life while answering the call and helping others.

Today, members of Twin District Fire Company and their families participated in the Tunnel to Towers 5K, following in Stephen’s footsteps 25 years ago and honoring his sacrifice, all those who were lost on September 11, 2001, and those we have lost in the years since.

We run to remember. We run to honor. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

Rest easy, Brothers. ❤️‍🔥🚒
