Does the weather have you thinking about your backyard paradise? Are the kids bugging you for a pool and you're ready to give in? Let us help! You provide the pool and we'll fill it!
Big or small, we fill 'em all!

We ask for a monetary donation of $150 per 3000 gallon load of water. Not only does this service help you out, it also provides training for our members on water shuttle & tender operations, apparatus backing/ placement, laying hose, pumping from a tender, plus much more.

We are only able to fill pools in and around Elmwood in our response area.

For more information or to schedule please message us here or email us at: [email protected]

Our hearts go out to our brothers and sisters to the south and to all Chris’ family and friends. Rest easy and fly high brother. You will be missed by many.

With profound and heartfelt sadness, we have to announce the passing of Firefighter Chris J. Bates. Chris joined the Durand Fire Department in 2007, served as a Lieutenant and Training Officer on the department and was a current Senior Member. Chris was an amazing firefighter and US Marine Veteran. More importantly he was a brilliant husband, father and grandfather to his family. Rest easy brother, we’ll take the watch from here. Godspeed Chris Bates.
