The Long Meadow Volunteer Fire Company, known as Station 27, is a 501(c)4 non-profit organization. The department serves a first-due geographic area of 14.2 square miles with a population of 9,116. This suburban area is comprised of 4,000 households and 350 businesses. Station 27, which has been in operations since 1971, currently has 45 volunteer responders, 15 administrative members, and 8 part-time driver/firefighters.
The firehouse is located at 19307 Longmeadow Road, Hagerstown, Maryland in the heart of the Paramount community. We are directly across the street from Paramount Feed & Supply and beside the CSX railroad tracks. We are within walking distance to a school, churches, and numerous businesses.
Our members are local citizens from all walks of life who are committed to serving their community. The original desire of the founders was to have better fire protection by having a faster response to alarms in the Long Meadow and Paramount area. Today’s first responders continue to execute this goal by participating in the live-in program at the station.
The department regularly schedules team-building exercises, drills, and training to keep their skills honed. Additionally, the firefighters join mutual aid training drills and continue to seek out and increase their certifications. The station is served by a volunteer board of directors responsible for the administrative and business aspects of the organization. Additionally, the station is provided support by the volunteer auxiliary members.
