The West Point Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad has been serving the local community since 1904. This site is here to provide information about the department. Training schedules, upcoming events and volunteer opportunities will be listed, as well as photos of the department in action.
The West Point Fire Department and Rescue Squad was established in 1904 after a fire destroyed a large section of downtown. We are an all volunteer organization with about 40 members who are trained in fire suppression, auto extrication, hazardous material emergencies, emergency vehicle operation and basic and advanced life support.

The department operates five advanced life support equipped ambulances, three pumpers, one 75 foot aerial apparatus, one 2000 gallon tanker/pumper and one brush truck. We also maintain an antique Seagrave pumper that was originally owned by the department in 1935. |
