Updates....

Its been several months since we've updated our website.  There's a lot of excuses I can give, but basically its been because we've been using Facebook to update on call responses and other issues.  But after talking with Jonathan we're going to try to use this more again. 

Things that have been progressing since our last update.  We are in construction on our new fire station.  The Fire Station will be known as the West Marshall Department Middle Fork Station.  Here are some construction photos....









Second, we have been responding to calls now in the former Pioneer response area.  There have been few calls, which is a good thing of course.  

Additionally, we would like to congratulate our neighboring districts to the east, Hardin-South Marshall Fire Department and Aurora-Ross Fire Departments have merged to form the South Marshall Fire Department.  We look forward to working with the new department.

More updates to come...

Long Time No Updates...

Sorry for the long delay and no updates.  There's been a ton of things going on and I just haven't had time to update, and honestly there was a lot that needed to be done without posting updates.  Anyways, here's the readers' digest:

Pioneer was annexed by West Marshall, effective 3-1-15
West Marshall assumes response duties effective 4-14-15
The annexed area will receive a new ISO rating within the next few (3-4) months.
We are in the obtaining contractor pricing on a new station.
Our latest engine (Engine 83) is in service.

Before anything else, a big thank you to the City of Benton, specifically the Benton Fire Department for their years of response service to the Pioneer area.

We have responded to a few incidents, and I hope to start back updating the site soon.  Thanks!
