Carthage Volunteer Fire Department

Carthage Volunteer Fire Department We are a Fire Department family committed to providing our community with rapid and professional response to all fire and medical emergencies.

We recognize the value of ongoing education & training as well as fire prevention for our community. Carthage Volunteer Fire Department was founded in 1953 with thirty-three members. The fire department joined the Indiana Volunteer Firemen's Association on July 12th, 1954. On November 9th, 1961, the fire department was incorporated and became known as Carthage Volunteer Fire Department of Rush Cou

nty, Inc. They had eight board of directors, three incorporators, two vehicles, and fifty dollars. The fire department and EMS Association met in September 1997 to discuss and vote on a possible merger. The vote was unanimous and the merge took place on January 1st, 1998. As of today there are six fire trucks, two ambulances, and twenty-eight members.
