Our Fire Department

We have 10 trained and state licensed first responders. The town also has a helipad for the AirVac Medical Helicopter to land for all emergencies deemed necessary.
It is our desire to provide the best service possible to our protection area. We could not do this without the selfless volunteers who give of their time and risk their lives to save others. We would like to thank each of them for their service and to thank their families for allowing them to pursue their passion to serve their community. If you would like to volunteer to become a member of Obion Fire Department, please go to City Hall and submit an application. We meet the Second Tuesday of each month from 6pm – 8pm.
