Watauga Fire Department

🥳🔥🎆 HAPPY 67TH BIRTHDAY, WATAUGA FIRE DEPARTMENT! 🥳🔥🎆
Established June 10, 1959

Today, we celebrate 67 years of proud service, dedication, and community protection with members from the Volunteer Department and/or Department of Public Safety days.

The roots of our department trace back to December 1958, when members of the community came together to raise funds and support the creation of a volunteer fire department. Just six months later, on June 10, 1959, the Watauga Volunteer Fire Department was officially organized.

From a handful of devoted individuals to a modern, professional department— our mission has remained the same:

"Protecting with Purpose; Serving with PRIDE."
👨🏻‍🚒Professionalism
🤝Respect
🛡️Integrity
🚒Dedication
🥇Excellence

We are proud of our history and grateful for the contributions of those who helped build and serve the Watauga Fire Department throughout the years.

On this 67th Birthday, we HONOR those who laid the foundation and those who continue to serve with courage and compassion every day. Here's to our legacy—and the future we're building together.
