Rector Volunteer Fire Department

Like many small towns throughout this country, Rector’s fire department is manned entirely by volunteers. These volunteers have regular jobs, families, they coach little league teams and volunteer for a host of other community events, but when the radio crackles to life, they immediately transform into firefighters.

They drop what they’re doing, grab their turnouts, jump into a pickup and speed off to wherever they are needed.

Like all other firefighters they do a lot more than knock down flames. They can cut you out of a crumpled car or pick you up when you’ve fallen. Working with Rector Police Department and the AMMC Ambulance crews and county Sheriffs, they are part of a large safety net for our community.
