The Dannemora Volunteer Fire Department is comprised of many brave and willing volunteers. The Fire Department, also known as the Walter N. Thayer Hose Company, has been a part of the Dannemora community since 1884.
The Dannemora Fire Station is not staffed twenty-four hours a day but when they are needed the station siren will sound and volunteers will be dispatched. All staff are well trained and practice every Monday of the year to make sure their equipment is in working order.
The Village of Dannemora is located in a rural section of upstate New York. There are a number of small villages and hamlets in the immediate vicinity. Each of these communities has their own separate fire departments, but because of their size and limited populations the equipment is minimal.
Largely due to the rural nature of this area the Dannemora Fire Department and Ambulance Squad is often called upon for mutual aid to assist with emergencies in these neighboring communities. Many of these same departments have also responded to our community with equipment and manpower during fires and other emergency situations.
