Message From High Country Chief

Hello High Country Neighbors,

Welcome! We are High Country Fire-Rescue, a non-profit corporation manned by volunteers who care about their community and the people who live here. Our volunteers have years of experience and training in the firefighting field. HCFR has many certified emergency personnel and we understand the importance of having qualified people on the scene of an emergency.

There is not a fire department in the area (between mile marker 188 and mile marker 210) willing to provide needed services. We have formed this department to do so. Not only are we volunteers, we are your neighbors. We are men and women who believe in giving back to our community in time of need.

Unfortunately, like all things in life, it takes money. This makes annual subscriptions necessary. We are not tax based and don't want to be. The funds raised from our annual subscriptions allow for planning, future growth, training, equipment purchases and saves the cost of billing. We will go on any call we receive; the difference for subscribers is they won't receive a bill.

We have as our mantra ARK. This stands for "Acts of Random Kindness."

I'm Fire Chief Robert Small of High Country Fire-Rescue; a company that goes where they are needed.
