Pike County Board of Commissioners Approves Staffing

for Pike County Fire Department

​

Beginning Monday, July 1, 2024, Pike County Fire Department will man Station 7 (Zebulon) with paid firefighters 24-hours a day, 7 days a week.  This increase in coverage is part of the recent 2024-2025 budget approval by the Pike County Board of Commissioners.

 

All volunteer personnel currently on the roster will continue to respond and perform duties as usual.  Our volunteers come from all walks of life, which, we have found, enriches our department and our abilities.  

 

We look forward to what the future brings for the department and our service to the citizens of Pike County.

More than 4,000 Americans die each year in fires and more than 25,000 are injured. Many of them might be alive today if they had only had the information they needed to avoid a disaster. Following simple fire safety tips can boost survival rates dramatically.

 

Here are ten quick safety tips for you and your family to practice:

- Do not play with matches!

- If your clothes catch fire, stop, drop, and roll!

- Make an escape plan and practice it.

- Plan a meeting place.

- Never hide! Get outside!

- Feel doors with the back of your hand before opening.

- Stay low and go!

- Get out and stay out!

- Change smoke detector batteries when you change your clocks.
