Fairfields Volunteer Fire Department in Reedville and Burgess is one of two VFDs in the county. The other is Callao Volunteer Fire Department in Callao.
Fairfields recently shared their 2025 stats on Facebook; they are also shown below.
The 2025 data becomes a little more interesting when compared to performance data since 2023. As is shown in the table Fairfields Volunteer Fire Department Types of Calls 2023, 2024, and 2025, call response increased 26% from 2023 to 2025. Differences worth mentioning are the increase of 100% between 2023 and 2025 for field and brushfire responses, a 120% increase in mutual aid responses, and a nearly 300% increase in lift assists. Be cautious with these numbers, though: The numbers are low so large increases are pretty easy to come by.
In the future, would love to see other data reported. Things like the number of volunteer hours for responding to calls for service, the number of trainings, hours dedicated to training, and manpower and hours given to community outreach and engagement.
