Bob Murray Sr Inducted into the BCVFA Hall of Fame

Last night Bob Murray Sr was inducted into the BCVFA Hall of Fame. He has been an active member of the Reisterstown Volunteer Fire Company for several decades and celebrating his 50th year anniversary as a member of the BCVFA. He retired after 32 years in service at BCoFD and served on numerous rescue committees. He is a mentor and leader here at RVFC and we congratulate him on this Award!

Passing of Tobe Carter

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.

Toys for Tots

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.

Reisterstown Parade

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.
