The Redwater Volunteer Fire Department delivers emergency response, fire prevention education, and community safety programs — powered by the people who live and work right here in Texarkana.
The Redwater Volunteer Fire Department is more than an emergency response team — it's a network ofTexarkana residents who chose to give their time, their training, and their courage to protect their neighbors.
Based at 2003 Chelf Rd, our volunteers respond to structure fires, medical emergencies, vehicle accidents, hazardous material calls, and search-and-rescue operations across the Texarkana area. Every alarm we answer is answered by someone who lives here, shops here, and sends their own kids to school here.
From fire suppression to community education, our volunteer team provides the full spectrum of emergency response and public safety services.
Structure fires, vehicle fires, wildland fires, and industrial fire response — our volunteers are trained and equipped to handle fires of every scale.
First response to medical emergencies, cardiac arrests, and trauma situations — often arriving before ambulances to stabilize patients on scene.
School visits, community workshops, smoke detector installations, and fire safety demonstrations to help prevent tragedies before they start.
Vehicle extrication, water rescue, confined space rescue, and search-and-rescue missions across the Texarkana region.
Identification, containment, and mitigation of hazardous material spills and incidents along local roadways and industrial sites.
Fire drills, open house events, National Night Out participation, and public demonstrations that build trust and preparedness.
We're always looking for dedicated individuals who want to serve their community. Whether you have emergency response experience or you're starting from scratch, we provide the training — you bring the commitment.
