The Petrolia VFD, is a small department founded in 1940. We provide fire protection and first responder services. We currently have 18 members, 6 of which are EMT's, 4 are certified firefighters. We provide service to our 77 sq. mile primary response area and assist in response to all other departments in Clay County. PVFD responds to an average number of 250 calls per year. Last year we responded to over 200 calls. The department depends on donations to operate. We strive to provide the best service to our community. 

Donations are used to provide maintenance for equipment, fuel, insurance, we have fundraisers, and seek multiple grants for equipment but they are few and far between. Examples of some costs are: $400.00 per tires, average tank of fuel $150.00, $10,000.00 for insurance, $1,500.00 for a set of wildland gear for firefighter protection. these are just some of the expenses associated with providing fire protection does not include monthly bills and equipment. This is why your donations make a difference. We appreciate your support.
