We got together with another company and spent an evening doing pumps and hydrant training. Obviously getting water into the engine and then out to the fire is one of the most important aspects for the first in engine company. We practiced setting up the “heavy water hookup” where we get as much water out of the hydrant as possible.

Ten years ago today, Gene Kirchner left us after a significant injury while attempting to save people in a house fire in Reisterstown on April 24, 2013. We will always remember you Gene.
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Life Member Tobe S. Carter (04 April 2023). Tobe joined the Reisterstown Volunteer Fire Company in 1961 and went on to serve in many Fireline and Administrative offices to include the Chief and President of the Fire Company. Throughout the years, Tobe was continually one of RVFC’s top responders. In addition, Tobe was recognized in 2003 as the “Firefighter of the Year” by the Baltimore County Volunteer Firefighters Association.
Just after midnight on December 19th RVFC and surrounding companies were dispatched for a house fire on Bellinger Ct. Engine 412 and Squad 414 were on scene for several hours for extinguishment and overhaul.

As the holidays draw near, the Reisterstown Volunteer Fire Company is excited to be a collection site for Toys for Tots as well as non-perishable food donations for people in need.
Toys for Tots donations must be new, unwrapped toys in their original packaging. We will also be collecting new coats, hats, gloves and blankets.
All donations can be made through contactless drop off via the back entrance to our station. This area is covered to protect donations from the weather. Donation bins will be checked regularly or you can call the station to let us know when you drop items off.
Thank you for continuing to support our station and our community. Every donation helps make someone’s day a little brighter.
This morning was the Reisterstown Parade. We pulled the apparatus out and washed it all. Just as the parade was starting S414 was dispatched for an overturned tractor-trailer in Carroll County. S414 went enroute up to the call and just as they arrived they were cleared off the call.
S414 made it back down to join E413 and SU418 for the parade.
