1st Responder Web Communications


Welcome to our Virtual Communications Station. Make yourself at home and allow us to introduce ourselves and share with you what we offer in terms of websites, online communications tools and services. Remember, Coordination, Cooperation and COMMUNICATION!
The business of First Responders is an ever evolving trade that has it's roots deeply embedded in the history of our great country. When Benjamin Franklin first came up with the thought of the volunteer fire department to protect the people of the new country he could not have had an idea where we would be today! At the time Dr Edward Dalton organized the first horse and buggy team of ambulances in 1869 New York City, could he ever have imagined what the service evolved into......... Fast forward to the year 2008..... Close to 300 years of first responders in the United States of America, a long proud tradition of selflessness and community service.
We first responders, both men & women, young & old are a huge family of diverse backgrounds who share common bonds of protecting the communities in which we live & work.

Our mission at 1st Responder Web is to Preserve the Proud traditions , document the current events and help bring together Brother and sister First Responders through the use of web-based communication tools and portray to the public the true images of these brave men and women in a up-to-date, visual, multimedia format.

Chief of our web development team is Volunteer Fire Fighter Tony Donato, Safety Officer for the Chester NY Fire Department. Working closely with him are his two firefighting sons Anthony jr. and Chris. All three of us are members of the Sugar Loaf Engine Company. They work daily on honing the look and administering the workings of sites they have designed for Fire Departments, Ambulance Corps and Law Enforcement Agencies as well as businesses and organizations throughout the world. -click here for a portfolio of our work- We have designed the web presence for the Orange County Firefighters Museum, in Montgomery, NY. We are working on a design for a multi-media, History of Orange County Fire Companies kiosk at the museum.

We are proud to share the kind words Chiefs & First Responders have said about our services!
Past Chief Frank Corkum - Warwick, NY FD Just wanted to pass on that from myself and the members, we are totally impressed with the site. Far better that we had expected when we first thought about creating a site. We are also excited about how things are progressing. There is always something new to look at. Kudo’s! Also, we are very comfortable having a firefighter design it rather than a “techie” that doesn’t share our values.

Past Chief Bob Capone - Chester, NY FD I am extremely pleased that you introduced our Department to the web. The forums alone are a great communication tool for us and I personally read them many times a week. So far as the public website, we have had many compliments from people and it seems to be a great PR tool and a way to share updated information with the masses. Thanks again for getting us up and running and educating us on use these useful tools!

Ditty Schulze EMS Coordinator - Greenwood Lake EMS Our Corps is proud to show our website to the world. It helps the community and entices younger people to join and serve in their community. Thanks 1st Responder, your people have made our website process fast, easy and informative.
