Our Fire Department receives no tax revenues and operates entirely on  proceeds from our Mountain and Art Auctions, donations from the public, and the occasional grant. Our services are available to not only the residents of our community but to visitors and neighboring communities as well. We are extremely proud of our volunteers and their achievements. Please take a moment to browse through our site and let us introduce ourselves
