🔥 South Fork Fire 🔥

The fight continues for firefighting efforts near Crawford.

HVFD showed up in full force to assist our neighbors to the north. Over the course of the last 5 days; our department has sent over half of our department members to work this fire. As well as several type 6's (grass rigs), water tenders, and our engine. Our firefighters were putting in, anywhere from 15-20 hour shifts and still returning back to Hemingford to respond to EMS calls. 🚑

Thank you to the community and our employers for allowing our members to help fight this fire.

We also want to extend our gratitude to the members helping hold down the fort at home. From responding to EMS calls and making repairs on trucks late into the night. This allowed us to continue the work we had to do to help our neighbors/families/friends to the north.

Lastly, thank you fire family for all your work making sure we had food on our trucks for the long shifts away from home and helping us rehab our trucks so the next crew was ready to go. 🚒

Thank you all!! ❤️

🔥 Ash Pole Fire 🔥

HVFD went to help our neighbors to the north, starting late Wednesday evening.
The first initial night of attack we staffed two type 6 (grass rigs) and a tender. The following morning we sent a relief crew of four and continued with fire fighting efforts until 2100 hours Thursday evening.
Significant containment has occurred over the last few days with calmer winds and lower temperatures.

Hemingford was just one of the many resources working this rugged terrain fire.

Lookout Hemingford....
There's a new ambulance in town 🚑

HVFD received our long-awaited, new and improved ambulance # 410.

American Response Vehicles (ARV) delivered the truck this afternoon and provided HVFD and Hemingford Rural Fire Protection Department a demo of all the bells and whistles.

We want to thank HRFPD and the Village of Hemingford for all their support in this 5 year long endeavor!

🎉 HVFD Spouse Appreciation & Awards Night🎉

We had the opportunity to honor our spouses and families this last month and thank them for the role they play in our department. We can't do what we do without them!

These men and women deserve so much recognition. We get their support in many ways. Whether its getting us meals on long shifts, helping rehab the trucks when we get back in the middle of the night, and everything in between, they do it all!

We honored a few of our members with years of service milestones as well. Marly Pehoviack received her 5 year plaque and Mark Klemke received his 30 year plaque. 👏

Special shout-out to Hemingford Girls Wrestling for serving our meal. Great job everyone.

Thank you again to our fire department family, you guys rock!!

Hemingford and another local VFD type 6 worked alongside each other their entire shift at the Minor Fire. 🌩 🔥

A great video showing unified crew dynamics on the fire line.
