Designed and programmed by Responder MAX, our redesigned website features updated, modern features with an emphasis on accessibility and streamlined organization. This is consistent with our public safety mission, which extends beyond emergency response. Through community outreach and events, we aim to build trust, educate the public, promote wellness, and create lasting relationships with our neighbors. A new website will make that easier.

We invite you to take a few moments to browse our content, including the latest information about volunteer opportunities, our many ongoing forms of community outreach, and our special offerings such as a rentable event space and weekly bingo night.

Please stay up to date on our activites by subscribing to our mailing list and monitoring our news blog.

Thank you for your ongoing support of VVFD. We look forward to serving you for another 100 years.

PLOW 402 Works 36-Hour Shift Due to Snow Storm https://vvfd.org/plow-402-works-36-hour-shift-due-to-snow-storm/ Sat, 14 Feb 2026 17:18:47 +0000 https://vvfd.org/?p=3762 Just a few weeks ago, PLOW402 was in service from 1900 Saturday to 0700 Monday of our latest snow storm, responding to emergencies. The plow responded to 21 emergency calls for service, not including several stuck motorists throughout the day, and assisting in clearing front ramps and parking lots at fire stations.

The purpose of the plow is to create an entry and exit point for emergency apparatus to access scenes, dig out walkways for patient access, and to ferry individuals from houses on impassable roads to emergency vehicles.

Thank You for Supporting Operation Save Santa’s Sleigh https://vvfd.org/thank-you-for-supporting-operation-save-santas-sleigh/ Mon, 08 Dec 2025 17:12:37 +0000 https://vvfd.org/?p=3757 You all certainly made our holidays merry & bright!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for not only meeting our fundraising goal for Operation Save Santa’s Sleigh — but exceeding it! Your support allowed us to reach $77k (over $27K more than our original goal) for Vienna’s Antique Fire Engine, our 1946 Maxim.

We’d like to acknowledge the tremendous outpouring of support for our Save Santa’s Sleigh fundraiser to help with repairs to our 1946 Maxim fire engine. Our hope was to have the Maxim back in time for the town’s annual holiday stroll, to help Santa travel around the town to drop off ornaments, and our beloved Santa Run’s traditions. Unfortunately, the Maxim needed a lot of work and will not be back in time. We are still helping with getting Santa around town in our current volunteer fire engine. While we’re heart broken the elves can’t work their magic as quickly as we’d hoped, your contribution ensures the Antique will be in amazing shape for Santa for many years to come.

While the Maxim won’t make it in time for Christmas, we’re still planning to thank all those that have supported us. Once it is back, we want to showcase it around town, and celebrate the exceeding our fundraising goal and helping the Santa’s Sleigh live on for many more years to come. We have asked Santa if after Christmas he’d be willing to come spend the first part of his “vacation” with us to help thank the community for their support. He said he will if Mrs. Clause hasn’t planned a trip yet, so we’ll keep you posted when we have something scheduled.

Again, a huge THANK YOU for your support.

Have a safe and wonderful holidays and visit our website (VVFD.org) for the latest 2025 Santa Run schedule.
