We would like to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who donated during our boot drop at Tafton Fire House on Saturday. Your generosity and support mean a great deal to our members and the community we proudly serve.

Every donation helps us maintain our equipment, purchase up-to-date gear, and ensure that our firefighters, EMS providers, and fire police have the tools they need to respond safely and effectively when you call for help.

Because of your support, we can continue to answer the call whenever we are needed. We are truly grateful for the trust you place in us.

We are always looking for new members to join our team! Whether you're interested in becoming a firefighter, fire police, EMS, or dive team, there is a place for you at Tafton Fire and Rescue Company.

Stop by any Thursday at 7:00 PM to meet our members, learn more about what we do, and see how you can get involved.

Thank you again for your continued support!

🚨 Incident Report β€” May 5 🚨

Tafton Fire and Rescue Company responded to a brush fire yesterday along Gumbletown Road near the intersection of Route 507.

At approximately 2:30 PM, firefighters, DCNR, and EMS personnel were dispatched to a reported brush fire involving an estimated 20 ft. x 20 ft. area. Crews arrived quickly to find the fire spreading rapidly due to warm temperatures, wind, and dry brush conditions. Even after recent rainfall, leaves and dead brush can dry out very quickly during warm, windy weather, creating dangerous fire conditions.

Firefighters worked aggressively to contain the fire before it could spread further into the wooded area. Thanks to the fast actions of responding crews, the fire was stopped approximately 100 feet into the forest before additional mutual aid resources were needed.

At this time, there were no obvious signs indicating the exact cause of the fire. Because of this, we want to remind the public about the dangers of improperly discarding trash or any items capable of generating heat. Even small items tossed from vehicles can quickly ignite dry brush under the right conditions.

Please help protect our community and environment by properly disposing of all trash and smoking materials. Had this fire gone unnoticed longer or had response been delayed, the situation could have escalated rapidly.
