Cosby Volunteer Fire Department

Cosby Volunteer Fire Department CVFD has proudly provided fire protection & rescue services to approximately 100 square miles of Cosby, TN since August 23, 1986.

On December 7, 1985, approximately 90 people were in attendance for a meeting that was held at Cosby High School to determine the need for a volunteer fire department. The Cosby Ruritan Club sponsored this meeting. Plans were made & fundraising began to help bring the new fire department to the area. On August 23, 1986, Cosby Volunteer Fire Department was officially established with 25 firefighter

s & 1 used 1955 Ford engine purchased from Sullivan County. Later, we added a 1958 Ford engine & also purchased old school buses from the county in which we turned into tankers. In the past 30 years, we have expanded to 4 stations: Station 1 next to Cosby School (our original station), Station 2 next to Cosby Post Office, Station 3 in the Edwina community and Station 4 near the National Guard Armory. We now have 2 mini pumpers, 3 tankers, & 4 engines. Our jaws of life & other rescue equipment is currently housed on our new 2008 Ford F550 mini pumper. Our ISO rating is currently a 6, & we are very proud of that! We currently have approximately 40 +/- firefighters, & cadet program that enlists, trains, & educates future firefighters currently under the age of 18.

🚨ATTENTION!🚨

It has been brought to our attention that scammers are actively trying to sell vendor spots for our Summer Festival.

Please note that if you paid/registered for a vendor spot then you should have been sent a link for our online form, AND the only person payments should have been made to via Venmo or Paypal is Danica Parks. If you have paid anyone else, then you have unfortunately been scammed!! 😔
