What Is The Purpose Of This Survey

In an effort to improve the fire protection in our community, we are asking residents to respond to this survey as soon as possible. The goal is to improve our emergency response ability and reduce potential loss of life and property. We are called on by Harris County 911 center for both fire and medical emergencies, and this information will allow Antioch Volunteer Fire department to better plan its response to any situation.

We are also asking that every household and business check their smoke detectors, fire extinguishers and to prepare an escape plan for your family or employees to use in the event of fire. If you find that you do not have a working smoke detector or fire extinguisher and need help installing or replacing one, please let us know. If you have difficulty checking these devices or need assistance with an escape plan, we can assist with this as well.

We have a limited supply of equipment that we will provide free of charge, and assist with installation if necessary. If you are in need of equipment or assistance you may complete and submit this survey, or contact us at 706-576-5559 or info@antiochvfd.org. Additional contacts are Greg Taylor, 706-327-7655 or Clark Webster, 706-571-9916.

You can locate information on smoke detectors by clicking here, and information on escape planning by clicking here.

Antioch Volunteer Fire Department is a volunteer organization which relies on the residents of our area for membership and support. We welcome everyone at our general business meeting held the first Monday of each month at 8:00 pm at Station 1 (located at the intersection of Lick Skillet Rd. and GA HWY 219/River Rd.). Here you can meet our current members, ask questions, and complete a volunteer application. Interested volunteers are also welcomed at any scheduled training.
