I have been to this firehouse a few times on occasion in the past, and I can say it's a nice station with a great group of volunteers. I always appreciate all the interaction with the kids and the community through the open houses and community days they host. That's always something that they do not have to do but they do and that is what makes this station awesome!

Did you know some fire departments have banquet halls? "EYE" myself did not! Upper Gwynedd Fire…read moreDept. has a pretty nice hall. There's private parking. However, locating the lot is a bit confusing considering it's located behind the houses next door and behind the fire department. The entrance is inviting, with a few chairs for sitting. It's also open enough that you can get some good photo ops in before entering the entertaining space. They have separate restrooms for men and women as opposed to unisex ones. The bathrooms are kept pretty well stocked you'd think there was a bathroom attendant. They had everything from pocket tissues to shout wipes! There's a kitchen for the caterer and bar space for drinks. A drawback to the hall is that there's only one room. The wedding I attended also had the reception there. This means you have to transform the the room to prepare the tables. And just where are your guests supposed to go while they wait to be served food? Oh outside? Down the street at Pizza Saloon? Cool....I guess We we can go eat before we eat...??! No biggie, right?! Nope! I got to explore. Although, for this particular event we had to leave, I'm sure this hall would suffice for a a regular gathering without 2-parts because it is a nice size. You can bring in your own caterer, bartender, photographer, etc and it appeared to be staff to assist but I'm not to sure. So if your in the market to party! Gwynedd Fire Department might be your spot!! Just don't burn the roof down.

Some of their officers go above and beyond their job requirements. Many of their officers have 20+ years experience and handle calls with plenty of history to rely on.

Everybody is so friendly and welcoming- including the members, front desk employees, fitness staff, maintenance, etc. I spent several years working out at a YMCA, and the UMCC's facility is very similar to the Y that I went to. I'm originally from Virginia, so I really appreciate feeling closer to home. You have the option of working out in the fitness center, attending a group fitness class, playing pickleball, playing basketball, etc. I would 100% recommend the community center!!
