Walworth Fire Department, Inc

About Us

Since our start in 1929, the Walworth Fire Department has been staffed entirely by volunteers.  Over fifty dedicated members provide the manpower and leadership necessary to protect life and property for the the residents of our community.


The Walworth Fire Department is run by the Walworth Fire District, which owns and maintains the firehouse, apparatus, and equipment.  The Department provides the manpower for the District.  Together, the Department and District work together to provide fire protection for the residents of Walworth.  We protect approximately twelve square miles for our fire district.

Our volunteers respond to a wide variety of emergencies every year, including:

  • house fires
  • chimney fires
  • car fires
  • brush fires
  • natural gas & propane leaks
  • carbon monoxide detector activation
  • chemical spills
  • motor vehicle accidents
  • water rescues
  • storm emergencies
  • electrical wires down
