The mission of the Woodbury Volunteer Fire Department is to deliver to the citizens of the Town of Woodbury the highest degree of protection of life, property and the environment that is technologically possible and economically feasible. This service shall be provided in the safest and most efficient manner possible.
The Woodbury Volunteer Fire Department was officially recognized on June 7, 1928 and responds to approximately 350 calls for assistance/emergencies a year.
The Department maintains seven pieces of apparatus, a UTV, a Haz-Mat trailer, and a Command Vehicle.
The Department Officers, Chief and Deputy Chief, are elected by the firefighters of both companies every two years.
The Company Officers, which are comprised of a Captain, First Lieutenant and Second Lieutenant, are elected by the members of each company and serve their respective companies for one year.
All officers and firefighters are required to meet rigid inter-department and state-mandated training and certification requirements. The department is very proud of our training and the high standards we have set for ourselves.
The Department is funded by the Town of Woodbury’s municipal budget, which is line item based. The Chief, with the help of the Officers, prepares and presents the budget yearly to the Department, the Board of Fire Commissioner’s, the Selectmen and the Board of Finance.
