Fire Department

The Haynesville Volunteer Fire Department was established in 1928.  The department is made up of over 30 volunteers assigned to engine, tanker and reserve trucks serving Haynesville and the Norton Shop rural substation.

The response time is 6 minutes or less and maintains a Class 3 PIAL rating (the highest for a town with a volunteer department).  The department trains every Monday night with several First Responders, EMT’s, Paramedics and Flight nurses among the volunteers.

The department is committed to providing the highest quality of emergency and non-emergency response.  The men and women are proud of the long tradition of excellence in serving the community, and are focused on continuing to raise the level of service in ways that better serve the citizens of Haynesville and District 1.
