The Appleby Fire Dept. is pleased to announce we were awarded a SAFER (Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response) Grant. This grant has allowed us to hire three paid trained firefighter/EMT personnel to work during daytime hours. These firemen allow for much faster daytime respones to fires, wrecks and medical emergencies. Over time the grant funding will slowly dwindle and we will need your financial support to help keep these paid firemen on staff, so they can quickly respond to emergencies in the Appleby area. KTRE news in Nacogdoches/Lufkin recently ran a news story on this topic and it can be viewed by clicking below. YouTube Link We have Appleby Fire Department t-shirts IN STOCK and they are available for the public to purchase at the price of $15/each.

Welcome to the website of the City of Appleby Fire Department, located in Appleby, Texas. We are a public department and currently have a 100% volunteer member base. We are supported by the generous donations of the residents of the surrounding area that we serve and protect, as well as by funding provided by the City of Appleby. We are also members of Nacogdoches County Emergency Service District 3 which provides our department with much needed tax dollars to help support and fund our ever growing expenses and needs. Appleby Fire Department proudly protects over 5,500 residents living in an area of over 50 square miles. We operate out of 1 station that protects a primarily rural area. The Appleby Fire Station is located in the Appleby Community Center in Appleby, Texas. The Dept was formed in April of 1975 and has been one of the most progressive rural fire departments in Nacogdoches County. We were the first dept. to initiate the medical first responder program in the county. We have over 30 members, 15 which are EMS certified. We also have (5) Level II Instructors and (4) Level I Instructors. We would like to welcome you again to our website and invite you to take a look at our Photo Gallery. |
