KNOX BOX INFORMATION The Community Volunteer Fire Department has adopted the Knox Rapid Entry System as the standard to be used for emergency entry to commercial properties. The system is a high security key system designed to give firefighters immediate access to locked buildings or secured areas after hours when the building is unoccupied. Rapid entry during an emergency helps protect both lives and property. The devices ordered will be shipped directly to you from the Knox Company. Depending on the type of device ordered, it will arrive either locked or unlocked. These devices are keyed specifically to the Department and only select units within the Department are supplied with the necessary keys. Follow the installation directions included with the device. Once you are ready to place the device into service, you will need to contact US and request assistance in locking the device. This process allows for the strict control of the keys as well as notifying the emergency crews of new devices in their area. Knox Boxes installed within CVFD's boundaries must be keyed to the proper lock. If your lock does not match our key, you must submit a Knox re-key form signed by our agency.

We would like to share this video as a tribute to Ryche's 20 years of service to Community VFD. Ryche climbing the 100 foot ladder of Tower 93 is very symbolic of his fight against cancer. Ryche was terminal at the time this was filmed, and his strength was not what it once was. That didn't stop him though. This was his first and only time to climb to the top of one of our aerials, and he was so proud of his accomplishment. He fought through some hard spots near the top, but he never gave up and kept on climbing. Ryche has now climbed to the top of his fight against cancer. While he will be sincerely missed, we are comforted in knowing that he has conquered the disease in a way in which it can no longer cause any further suffering for him. Rest in Peace, Ryche. We'll take it from here. Have you ever wondered what it is like to be a firefighter? We welcomed Unspeakable to give it a try at the Stephen R. Fowler Training Facility. They didn't quite make the cut this time, but if you're interested in trying it for yourself, check out our fire academy page.

This allowed the department to house more suppression apparatus in our central fire station. Encompassing over 80% of our emergency calls, our EMS program is at the forefront of pre-hospital care. Station 94 houses Medic 91, Medic 94, and EMS Supervisor 90.
