About Forest Hill Volunteer Fire Department:
The Forest Hill Volunteer Fire Department was established in 1953 under the guidance of the Forest Hill Civic Club. The Department operated for fifty-three years until most of the fire protection district was annexed by the City of Winston-Salem.
Through the efforts of our Board of Directors and Fire Marshal Reed Jarvis we negotiated with Forsyth County to let us enter into a limited operational agreement with the South Stokes Volunteer Fire Department. As a result we were able to help build a substation in the Germanton area to serve portions of Stokes and Forsyth Counties. The substation opened for business in November, 2007 and a dedication ceremony is scheduled for October 19, 2008.
Our Winston-Salem Station will be maintained by the Forest Hill Civic Club as an Historical Fire Museum. Our vintage fire apparatus and fire equipment will be on display at this location including two 1953 Mack Pumpers, 1972 Howe Pumper, 1967 Mack Pumper, 1962 Willys Jeep and 1973 Squad Vehicle.
All Forest Hill members as of June 30, 2006 will remain at their current rank in perpetuity.
