STATION REMODEL IS COMPLETED

Finally, after lots of work (and infinite patience!) our station is completed. All department operations, administration and training are now located at the new building and we have never been happier. We think the most happy are the firefighters, due to the fact that this is the first fire station in the history of JVFD that wasn’t build entirely by the members. Feel free to come by anytime and take a tour or our new home.

Volunteer Participation Requirements Expanding

We finally completed the station move. Station Two is officially retired and all operations have been relocated to Station One. With that, beginning June 1st, we will start the two shifts per month of volunteer staffing. This is important due to the fact that, as of June 1st, we will also be reducing paid staffing to 5 firefighters. This means that the volunteers on shift will no longer be extra personnel: you will be required staffing.
