Center Grove Volunteer Fire Department was founded in 1973 by five community members: Ronnie Reynolds, Robert Krack, Vernon Poe, Robert Thomas, and Paul Caves. They had approximately 20 department members. On January 7th, 1979, the fire department suffered a fire that destroyed the building, as well as two trucks and equipment. The members did not give up; they constructed a new building and purch

ased equipment. Today, Center Grove Fire Department has as a member the last surviving founding member, Robert Thomas, who is still active with fire calls, medical calls, and training when able to attend. Robert has held several positions in the fire department, including Chief. Robert was the first member to obtain his EMT certification.

Summertime is almost here and we know folks want to get their pool open soon! We do not want to be a negative nelly but this is the time we start getting calls about pool filling.

Unfortunately, most fire departments DO NOT fill swimming pools, us included. We have limits to what we can do and our liability insurance is not intended to cover possible damage to your property, pool deck, pool liner, equipment, or injuries that might occur on this type of request.

We love ya, we really do, but unless your pool is on fire we can't really bring water to it. (disclaimer, please don't set your pool on fire, that just doesn't make sense). Besides, the water we use for fires and training is not intended for us to distribute for such an activity and the water that flows through our trucks gets dirty sometimes. You really do not want a pool full of something that looks like it was poured from a coffee cup at Starbucks.

We hope you have a fantastic summer and enjoy your pool with friends and family. Have a Safe Summer!

As the department's Chief Officer, I wish to publicly apologize. My comment about politicians missing our fundraiser was inappropriate and should never have been shared. I truly care about our County and its citizens, regardless of their background or political stance. I sincerely apologize to everyone for my Facebook post.
