Hickory Grove Volunteer Fire Department (Mecklenburg County, North Carolina)

== History ==
Hickory Grove FD, the twelfth VFD in Mecklenburg, was organized on Sep 23, 1953, to provide volunteer fire services to the Hickory Grove area of Charlotte, NC. In their first year, they responded to 21 calls.
In 1978, the City of Charlotte annexed a large portion of the department's district and built a city fire station (Fire Station 23) less than a half mile from their station. As the City continued to grow, Hickory Grove's district continued shrink with much of their district farther east towards the county line. In 1984, the department built a substation further out in the county (near the Cabarrus County Line) on Mecklenburg Shrine Club Road.
In 1988, the Hickory Grove VFD reorganized as the Robinson Volunteer Fire Department, closing their main station and moving all their equipment to the substation location.
