HISTORY

The first records of the Farmersville Fire Association shows that the first meeting was held in January 1920, however we read that the minutes from the previous meeting were approved.

Since that time we have had seven chiefs, with our current chief serving in this capacity since 1978.

The Fire and EMS service is one big brotherhood of ordinary people doing extraordinary work. We are a family and it is definitely seen in our small community. Over the past 84 years we have had the pleasure of having approximately 175 members join the ranks of our department. We have had sons follow in their fathers and grandfathers footsteps, along with daughters, nieces, nephews, cousins, brothers, sisters, husbands and wives.

We have faced many challenges over the years. Seven years ago we voted to hire the chief full time, due to the amount of work required by the state and other projects we would like to accomplish. With more people working days and less night shifts, we found a need to start a part time paid program three years ago. We currently have a roster of 32 members with 24 of them being volunteer. The volunteers are still and always will be our greatest asset.
