Welcome to the official website for the North Shenango Fire Department also known as "17 HOUSE". We are located in Espyville Pennsylvania which is in Western Crawford County near the Ohio Border. All of our members are volunteers who proudly provide fire protection, rescue services and emergency medical service (QRS) to our community. NSFD operates from one station on State HWY 285 and runs one Engine, one 100' Ladder, one Tanker, one Mini-pumper, one QRS vehicle and one Rescue Boat. NSFD went from running 135 calls in 1997 to 310 in 2007. We also provide mutual aid in 2 states, 4 counties and over 15 townships and boroughs.
NSFD would also like to invite everyone to our Weekly Bingo held at 11658 Linn Road in Espyville. Bingo starts at 6:45pm on Saturday with doors opening at 5:00. Don't forget to bring a friend.
17 House would like to thank you for checking out our website. Please take time and check out the other pages. This site will continually be updated, so check back often.
