Fighting Fires with Education
The Greenfield Fire Department is made up of 51 full-time members. The city is covered by two fire stations that protect 13.5 square miles. The department responds to approximately 4,000 calls annually and protects a population of 37,000. The department provides fire and emergency medical services (Basic Life Support and Advanced Life Support). In addition to these services, the department is trained and equipped to respond to other types of emergencies, such as Hazardous Materials spills, Confined Space entries, minimal water and rope rescue, mass casualties and weapons of mass destruction. The Greenfield Fire Department will use this forum to share information about fire safety/awareness, first-aid tips and department events.

The 2008 "Keep the Wreath Green" campaign has come to an end. The final count was 44 Green and 6 Red Lights. These numbers are 3 higher than last years totals (47 Green & 3 Red.) Again, our goal is to "Keep the Wreath Green" and promote fire safety throughout the holiday season.
In 2009 we will attempt to have NO red lights on the wreath, we can do this by continuing to practice fire safety.
From the Greenfield Fire Department Have a Safe and Happy New Year!
