Bishopville Volunteer Fire Department

CHATS (County Hospital alert Tracking System) – CHATS is a real-time computerized monitoring system of hospitals and EMS systems status throughout Maryland. Hospital emergency departments that are temporarily unable to accept ambulance-transported patients due to overcrowding or hospital overload are identified so that ambulances can be diverted to other, less crowded ED facilities

The Thin Red Line

Redline

As firefighters are periled, they place their lives second to those they protect. They are forced to face their own fears and grasp for every ounce of courage to perform the necessary task. “The Thin Red Line of Courage” represents the last ounce of courage firefighters find deep in their blood to conquer their darkest fears in order to save and protect life and property. The firefighters from the Apex Volunteer Fire Department designed and developed the “The Thin Red Line of Courage” in 1999. Today, it is displayed to show respect for firefighters injured and killed in the line of duty.

Bull & Oyster Roast

THANK YOU TO OUR COMMUNITY, NEIGHBORS, FRIENDS AND PATRONS FOR HELPING MAKE THE 2010 BULL & OYSTER ROAST A SUCCESS.

Welcome to the Bishopville Volunteer Fire Department Website

Bishopville, a small unincorporated town, located on the Eastern Shore of Maryland on the northern aspect of Ocean City, MD.

38.47°N - 75.21°W

The Bishopville Volunteer Fire Department would like to Thank You for your interest and support. Like yourselves, we are very mindful of the economic crisis that our Country and most importantly the Local Level faces. This issue affects all of us and each of us must do our part.

Our goals remain the same and we shall not waiver from providing quality FIRE/EMS/Rescue Services to our residents and Visitors. However, without your continued support, we would not be able to provide the level of Emergency Services to our community.

To maintain our department, outfit our firefighters, provide specialized training, repair equipment and to replace aged apparatus costs a significant amount of money. Your tax-deductible donation will be used to maintain this service and provide so much more.

We have 65 dedicated volunteer members that are trained and certified as firefighters. In addition, we also have several members that maintain many specialty certifications to provide the highest level of response and service to our neighbors, residents and businesses.

Last year, we have established a fund to re-build our existing main street fire station. The station was built in 1965 and the condition of the building warrants upgrades and changes to meet the needs of a modern fire department.
