According to the National Fire Protection Association, 72 percent of the more than 1.2 million firefighters in the United States are volunteers. In most rural areas, volunteers make up the vast majority of firefighters. A case in point can be found in South Dakota where nearly 95 percent of those answering the call are volunteers, and even the State Capitol of Pierre is protected by a volunteer department. Producer David Miller spent a few days with several fire companies in South Dakota earlier this fall and filed this report.

Hey everyone. There are a few new polls that'll be appearing on the site in the next few months. Please take some time to input your opinions. The information can help shape Lincoln County's emergency services! Thanks, Don McLeer | | No comments for this item |

Went to C-Ville this evening. 01/21/09 No meeting to be had What is up with communications? Web site is behind, meeting minutes not posted, changes not sent. The purpose of meetings is to stay informed, but, if this is turning clicky, I may need to re-evaluate our involvement.

The meeting for the month has been moved to Beresford. We are doing a joint meeting/training with Union county fire departments on underground gas lines running in their county and ours. Natural gas lines like the one that feeds the storage sit just west of Canton. We will have a meal at 7 and the training at 7:30 and then our Lincoln county FF meeting to follow asap so we can all get home half way early. I have heard there will be some things that willbe discussed and ALL departments need to hear and put in their two cents also. New and some old business, I hope all departments will show up so we can hear from everybody and if are some motions and votes for change-majority rules. Some departments are pretty lack a daisy for these meetings and I also would like to see that changed. There is so much happening with the fire services now-a-days we all need to keep up with those things and also to try to keep up with the basics also. So i am hoping we (lincoln county) will have a good turn out for this training and then our meeting that follows. Hopefully we can have a better turn out then what we had in Harrisburg for the Southeastern South Dakota Fire School.
