Ron Fink Asst.Chief of the West Laurens FD in Central upstate NY. If you blink when you drive thru our Hamlet you will miss it. But do not speed thru it because the law loves it because it has a 45mph speed zone and no one does it. We have between 75 to 100 calls each year fire/ems combined. There is three depts. plus one ems dept. in our town which splits up the coverage of 45 sq. miles. My dept. takes care of 15 sq. miles of the town. We have 1-Pumper, 1-Mini Pumper, 1-Light Rescue, and 1-Tanker. There is 40 members 25 active, 10 life or charter members, the other 5 help at fund raiser's.

Well im from a small town in cali. Technically its not even a town its a lake . Called Lake Don Pedro subdivison. Its in Mariposa county so we are a county fire dept. we have 12 stations around the county and each has from aroun 3 people to 10-15 or so... Our company doesnt even have a station. We have a car port in the sheriffs yard. Our office is a storage container. Ironically we arent even on the top of the list do get a station. Theres another station ahead of us and they have a station but it's in bad shape.
