In 1938, a group of Upper St. Clair residents started the township’s Volunteer Fire Department. It was officially chartered as a non-profit corporation in 1939. That same year, the department purchased its first pumper and housed it in a station on the corner of Route 19 and N. Highland Road. To celebrate this year’s 75th anniversary, Upper St. Clair Volunteer Fire Department had a picnic at South Park.
