Since 1921 the alarm has sounded clearly and resoundingly for house fires, rescues, service calls, and medical assistance.
The Delmar Fire Department was organized October 16, 1921. Since that time many Chartered and Honorary Members, thirty four Life Members as well as todays Active Members, have watched the Delmar Fire Department grow.
From a small building in the beginning to the present facility, from one small piece of equipment to the present existing equipment covering all phases of emergencies, the Delmar Fire Department still is expanding for the “Service For Others”.
The Delmar Fire Department is led by a dedicated team of Fire Line Officers who oversee operations and ensure the highest standards of service to our community.
Our coverage area spans both Maryland and Delaware, protecting the Town of Delmar and neighboring communities with around-the-clock fire, rescue, and emergency response.
