Who we are
When emergencies strike, we’re always just a call away, fully prepared and eager to spring into action at a moment’s notice. At Lanesborough Fire, our dedicated team is made up of firefighters from all walks of life—each bringing a rich blend of unique skills, diverse experiences, and valuable perspectives that empower us to protect our community with confidence and care.
From former military members and healthcare professionals to business owners and passionate educators, our wide-ranging backgrounds not only make us stronger but also greatly enhance our ability to respond quickly, efficiently, and effectively in any situation.
what we do
We’re on duty around the clock, always ready to keep Lanesborough safe. But our role goes far beyond rushing to fires or accidents. Our volunteers actively engage in fire safety education, visiting schools, community centers, and local events to teach fire prevention and emergency preparedness.
Additionally, our team conducts regular inspections of public buildings to identify potential hazards before they become emergencies. We also provide technical rescue services, including vehicle extrications and water rescues, which many may not realize are part of what we offer.
Through continuous training, community outreach, and a genuine commitment to service, Lanesborough’s volunteer firefighters work every day to keep our town safe—not just during emergencies, but long before they ever occur.
