About this organization
Mission
The Lakeville Volunteer Fire Department (LVFD) was created in 1973 by a group of local farmers and ranchers who saw a need for fire protection after a large fire ripped through the area destroying many buildings. Over the past thirty plus years, the goal of the volunteer department has been to provide quality fire and medical services to the citizens and visitors to our community. Prior to this time, fire protection was provided by a single engine from the CALFIRE station in West Petaluma. In 1982, 501(c)(3) non-profit status was awarded to the LVFD. This paved the way for crucial fund-raising opportunities.
About
As the LVFD fund-raising abilities grew to include memorial gift opportunites, dues from area residents and the current annual pancake breakfast and raffle, the department began acquiring additional firefighting and lifesaving equipment to better serve the community and visitors to the Lakeville Basin. The Lakeville Volunteer Fire Department now responds to a wide variety of incidents including hazardous materials, public assists, vehicle accident extrications, land and water rescue, commercial and residential fire alarms, and much more.
