On average, our station responds to over 125 fire and rescue emergencies and over 200 medical emergencies every month. With limited financial support from the county, we rely on the generosity of those we serve to maintain our equipment and keep our station running.
Our annual Rescue Run fundraiser is a key part of our efforts to keep the station funded. Please consider supporting the event this year.
