Ridge Fire Department, Ridge, NY


Community Events and Information




COMMUNITY NOTES


Have you seen our Big Red History Book?  For many years, the Department has maintained a record of our history in a very large red book. Sometime over the past few years, the book was lost. The Department's history was written in calligraphy and a number of our members have worked on it over the years. We believe that one of our past members may have given the book to someone to update for us and forgot about it. We are hoping that one of our past members visiting our website or someone from our community might know of its whereabouts. If so, please contact us. The book is approximately 2' wide and 3' written in calligraphy and clearly identified as the Ridge Fire Department.
