We are a Municipal Fire & Rescue service that covers the town of Belgrade located in Kennebec county Maine. Belgrade is located just a few miles northwest of Maine's capital city, Augusta. Belgrade covers about sixty (59.7) square miles, with a large part of this area composed of lakes and streams. Our current population is estimated to be about 4,000 year-round citizens, and that number nearly do

ubles when non-residents arrive to spend the summer months here. There is a 18-hole golf course, just south of the Belgrade Lakes Village. We currently operate four Fire Engine/Pumpers, two Tanker/Tenders, one all-terrain unit, one brush unit, one boat and one light-duty rescue out of three stations. We provide emergency medical services with a permit to the Paramedic level. We also maintain a Junior Firefighter / EMT program which is registered with the National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC). We respond to multiple emergencies throughout the year, and provide mutual aid to numerous neighboring towns.

Belgrade Fire and Rescue extends our deepest sympathies on the loss of Harry. Because our very own Firefighter/Paramedic, Jeremy Damren, was Harry's handler, Harry was no stranger to our fire stations and community functions. He will be sorely missed.

Thank you for your service to the State of Maine and the country, Harry. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Jeremy and Thomas for the loss of not only a dedicated retired service dog, but a beloved member of the family.

The Belgrade Fire & Rescue Association's Annual Beanhole Bean Supper is happening tomorrow at 5:00 PM, and we're hoping our amazing community can help make the dessert table as legendary as the beans!

If you can whip up a pie, cake, cookies, brownies, or your favorite sweet treat, we'd be so grateful. Homemade desserts have a magical way of disappearing... almost as fast as firefighters answering a call!

Dessert drop-off: Any time on Saturday
Belgrade Lakes Fire Station

Whether it's Grandma's famous apple pie, your secret chocolate cake recipe, or the brownies everyone fights over, we'd love to have it!

Help us end every bowl of beans with something sweet. Thanks for supporting the Belgrade Fire & Rescue Association—we couldn't do it without this incredible community!
