Hello Warren,
My name is Kyle Wood and I am the Chief of Tyler County ESD #4 - Warren Fire & Rescue. I joined my first fire department as a junior at 13. I have continued to do the job 100% as my way to give back to my community. Still today, that's the only reason I do it. Definitely not because of the pay. We don’t like to use the word volunteer anymore because regardless of pay, the job your fire fighters perform and the risk they take is the same. But, the truth is, from commissioners down to jr. fire fighters, everyone here is a volunteer and each person gives so much of themselves to support and protect you, our community! It brings me true joy when we are able to show up on someone's worst day and save/help their lives or property.
Now as a chief, I think watching our young and new members grow into well rounded fire fighters, the next generation of people to run towards the danger instead of away, is what makes me happiest and proudest. I am extremely proud of your fire fighters here in Warren. They have become a solid crew and continue to grow and improve their skills daily. They are dedicated to the goal we have set to provide the very best fire services to you, the community and taxpayers of Tyler County ESD #4.
This station we call our home is YOUR FIRE STATION; we are YOUR FIRE FIGHTERS; THIS IS WARREN’S FIRE DEPARTMENT. We hope we make you proud to have us protect you and we thank you for letting us serve you.
We have worked tirelessly to plan the Comedy Night Fundraiser taking place at the fire station tonight at 6pm. There will be food, raffles, door prizes, silent auction items and a great clean performance by our professional comedian, Brent Reed. I hope everyone will support Warren Fire & Rescue and show up for the fun tonight! The station will be manned all day today and tickets are available at the station or online. We will have additional tickets at the door and would love to have you and your family join us. The night has been planned for family friendly fun right here in our community.
