Neighboring Fire Department Steps Up to Support Community During Annual Banquet

This evening, the Concord Volunteer Fire Department demonstrated the true spirit of collaboration and community by staffing our station while our members attended the Annual Amherst County Fire & EMS Banquet.

The banquet is an important event, recognizing the hard work, dedication, and commitment of fire and EMS personnel in serving our community. Thanks to the generosity and support of our neighbors in Concord, our station remained ready and capable of responding to any emergencies during this time.

This act of partnership underscores the values shared among fire and EMS agencies everywhere—being just a phone call away to lend a helping hand, regardless of county, city, or jurisdiction. It's a testament to the shared mission of protecting lives and property, no matter the boundaries. 🇺🇸

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Concord Volunteer Fire Department for their continued support and collaboration. Working together, we are stronger and better equipped to serve our communities.

Fire Safety Tip: Regularly test your smoke alarms to ensure they’re functioning properly. A working smoke alarm can double your chances of escaping safely in a fire. Visit our website for more safety resources and ways to support your local fire department.

Thank you to all who help make our community a safer place!
