In a community known for volunteers, one group stands out for their dedication and willingness to put their own safety on the line to protect the lives and property of others. The members of Taylors Bridge Fire Department are prepared to handle whatever may come their way, and they are justifiably proud of their record and the fact that they are 100 percent volunteers. I have had the honor and privilege to serve as the current Fire Chief since 1998.

Keeping volunteers is not always easy to do. The national average for a person to be on a Volunteer Fire Department is five years so we here in Taylors Bridge feel lucky to have fifteen active firefighters with more than 10 years.

The firefighters come from all walks of life. Many live and work in Clinton and/or are local farmers and are available to answer calls day and night. Others work out of town and focus their firefighting efforts on evenings and weekends. One thing they all have in common is a high level of training.

As a group, the volunteers spend every Tuesday evening working on different firefighting and rescue techniques, including work with hazardous materials. Fifteen firefighters have received their Firefighter I & II certification from the North Carolina Fire and Rescue Commission and two of the volunteers are Emergency Medical Technicians. Many of the firefighters continue to attend courses at Sampson Community College and the National Fire Academy and will soon have their certification. Twelve members are currently Rescue Technician and the department was RT certified in 2004. In Taylors Bridge, we are neither too small to teach nor too large to learn. We're anxious to study, to share, and to improve the service we provide our citizens and our visitors.

Hopefully, you will never need our emergency services, but if you do, we pledge to respond with a fast, well-trained and courteous team of professionals to your call for help.

Let us hear from you and enjoy your visit to our website!
Thank you and God bless you.
