The Ellerslie Volunteer Fire Department is on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Less than half of these donate to the fire department. The donation is tax deductible. The support of every family and business in our community is very important. The Ellerslie Volunteer Fire Department currently has 17 active firefighters.
Equipment includes two fire-engines.
One is a 1990 Ford E-One that pumps 1,000 gallons per minute and carries 1,000 gallons. The second engine is a 1971 GMC that pumps 500 gallons per minute and carries 1,250 gallons of water. The Volunteer Fire Department depends upon your contributions, which are tax deductible, for operating expenses. The plans are being made to build a new fire house in the very near future. If anyone is interested, please feel free to attend or call Richard Camp, Fire Chief at 561-0628.
