Services
In addition to being ready to fight a fire or respond to a car wreck in the Holly Lake area, there are a number of
other things the Holly Lake Volunteer Fire Department offers as services to the residents in this area. Following
are details of just a few. If you want to know more about these, or ask questions about other needs, just call
903-769-4341. Leave your name and number and we will be in touch to discuss your needs.
Safety inspections:
Are you concerned about the fire safety of your property? Call us. Our training officer is a State Certified Fire
Inspector. He can look over your property to help spot general hazards including water heaters, minor electrical
system checks, and other types of general hazards.
Smoke alarms:
If you need help checking the readiness of your smoke alarms, just let us know. This includes putting a new
battery in for you. Just make sure you have one that fits your model.
Medical equipment:
Need crutches for a couple months? Need a wheelchair or walker for a while? We have them ready to be
loaned out free of charge.
Special-event tours:
Are you having grandkids visit for the summer? Are you having a birthday party for kids? Maybe they would like
to come to the fire station for a tour of the big trucks. In addition to trying on the firefighting clothing and helmets
and climbing all over the trucks, this includes getting to spray water and turn a siren on. These tours are
available to adult groups, too.
Programs:
If you need a program for your church group, civic group, ladies group, youth group, or whatever, just call us.
We can do a number of different programs that run the gamut from bringing a big truck to spray water to
educational programs on fire safety. One of our favorites is bringing our firefighter clothing and letting
participants try it on and see how it works. Of course, we can tailor our programs to fit your interests.
Traffic control:
For certain types of special events, we are available to help with traffic control. For those of you attending the
July 4th fireworks, you saw many of our people adding to the enjoyment of the event by directing traffic and
making it easier to get in and out of the area.
Training sessions:
We have training classes that are open to the public. An example of this is the Holly Lake Wildland Search and
Rescue Conference. It is held the 3rd week in March here at the Holly Hall. It is open to all folks. There is a
registration form to be filled out in advance of the conference. Call the Fire Department to get one.
Fire Safety Events:
Each year we participate in programs at Hawkins High School and Harmony High School. This includes taking
our trucks to the schools and spending the day with students looking over the equipment and talking with them
about fire and driving safety.

The above services are a sample of what we are willing to offer. If you have a unique need, let us know. We will
do our best to help you with it.
