The Eastern Hubbard County Fire District
(Akeley Fire Dept.) and Akeley 1st Response Team give Fire
Protection and Rescue help to the city of Akeley, Akeley, Badora and White Oak
townships, as well as mutual aid with surrounding area
departments. Each of the covered area's has 2
representatives who attend monthly meetings to discuss the needs of the department. So we
can continue to offer the best and safest coverage possible
while still meeting all MN State & OSCHA requirements.
At this time we have 20 fire and 10
rescue team members. Many of these dedicated people
belong to both teams. Both teams respond at the same
time as needed. Members continue to attend classes &
training.
We are very Thankful for the continued generous support we
receive from Akeley VFW Harold Harris Post 8508. We now
have the "Jaws of Life" and Airlift Bags. Also
we received donation towards a Cascade System.
Donations have also come from Akeley Fire and Rescue
Auxiliary's fund raising efforts allowing us to obtain a
Piercing Nozzle, and PAL'S for Air Packs (this is an alarm
allowing other's to find a fireperson who may become trapped
or hurt while in fire or smoke filled area). And AFRA is
now assisting the dept. to purchase a Ventilation Saw.
We appreciate all the donations that come to E.H.C.F.D. and
Akeley 1st Response Team. Our community working together
can make a difference.
