Flint Hill Volunteer Fire & Rescue is proud to welcome its newest member, Elijah Settle, into Company 4 as a firefighter, emergency medical technician (EMT) and certified emergency vehicle driver. Elijah is the 50th member to affiliate with the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire & Rescue since it was reorganized under new leadership in January 2023, and he is the now the tenth Emergency Medical Services (EMS) provider in Company 4.

Flint Hill Volunteer Fire & Rescue has worked diligently over the past three years to rebuild trust and strengthen support within our community. Today’s milestone of 50 affiliated members is testament to our hard work, professionalism and positive focus. In 2025, Flint Hill responded to 83 fire calls and 269 emergency medical calls, and in the first first quarter of 2026 we responded to 26 fire calls and 87 medical emergencies.

We thank Elijah for his commitment to serving our community and extend our deepest gratitude for the continued support and generous donations from the community—our ability to respond to emergencies in the Flint Hill and greater Rappahannock County areas would not be possible without you!

Firefighters from the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire & Rescue recently participated in a Pump Operators training. Without municipal fire hydrants, water from lakes, pools and other reservoirs is needed to refill tanks in the event of a sustained fire, and pumps are needed to both fill and discharge water.

Company 4 received 83 fire calls in 2025 and 26 fire calls from
January to March in 2026.

We are always looking for new volunteers who are interested in joining our firefighting team!

Rapp at Home volunteer Lindsay Wiley and Flint Hill Volunteer Fire & Rescue members Susan Fitzgerald and Isabelle Robey helped to staff Flint Hill’s Blood Pressure Screening event today. Rapp at Home received a grant from UVA Health to distribute automated blood pressure cuffs and pulse oximeters for home use to County residents.

High blood pressure is often called “the silent killer” because it does not have obvious symptoms. Identifying a problem is the first step toward lowering the risks associated with untreated high blood pressure.

In addition to checking your blood pressure we will have blood pressure and pulse oximeters for your home use, medical alert magnets for your refrigerator, and stroke symptom awareness. Come on by and meet our EMTs…..
