Our Story
On a warm summer night, a group of dedicated volunteers gathered in the Old Cove Community Building to establish an organization focused on the safety and security of their families and neighbors. With an old, broken-down fire truck purchased for just $1.00, these pioneers towed it back to Cove and invested countless hours of volunteer labor. From cooking for fundraisers to repairing fire trucks, a unique camaraderie developed, driven by a shared commitment to the common good. The Cove Fire and Rescue team honors the selfless dedication of its founders, whose legacy inspires today’s firefighters and ensures that Cove remains a safe and caring community.
