| Welcome to our website |
West Knox Volunteer Fire
Department was founded in January of 1962. This year
marks our 48th year of providing fire protection and
life saving services to our community. We have grown
over the years to provide many other services than those
offered from our start. Our original station, Station 1,
is at the end of the football field at old Lynn Camp
School. In 2002, we added another station, Station 2, in
Laurel County to help our ISO rating. We are working
hard to add a third station in Gray as soon as possible.
We have applied for a grant that could make that happen
soon. |

It
seems that when folks have an emergency
and aren't sure who or what they need, they call us. So
we have adapted to be able to provide a wide variety of
services. We have rescued horses from being stuck in the
mud. We rescue flood victims and deliver
supplies to those stuck behind high water. We respond to
areas hit by high winds and tornados. We added vehicle
extrication to our specialized skills in the late 80's.
We go to schools, businesses and public functions to
teach safety to anyone who ask. We've even helped get cats from trees, but trust us,
they will come down. We have responded to many calls
that seem to be an emergency when you call, but end up
being nothing at all. You know what our response is to
that? We would rather come to nothing than not be called
to something. The list of things that we are willing to
do is pretty much endless.

Knox County Clerk Mike
Corey and the great staff at his Corbin Office have let
us put a drop box there for our community to leave
membership fees and donations. It has been many years
since we have had a place for everyone to donate on a
regular basis. Please take advantage of this and help
support us. |
