About Us
Encouraging our members to flourish and utilize their skills & drive by using the most up-to-date tools and technology to assist our neighbors and community.
In 1927, a group of concerned citizens got together to form the Riverside Volunteer Fire Company. They purchased a two-wheeled hose cart and stored it in a nearby barn. From these humble beginnings, our present day organization developed. Membership is encouraged beginning at age 14. Eager young persons, seasoned, experienced individuals, and all who fall in between are encouraged and welcome to join!
