On October 20th, 2016 Lone Star Fire Specialties came to our facility to perform Pump Testing on our Fire Apparatus. This testing is important because it puts our trucks through the paces and can ensure that they will perform their duties in an emergency situation. It also helps us to find minor and even major issues with our fire apparatus so that we can fix them before they fail. 

On Saturday October 16, 2016, the Elderville Lakeport VFD responded with Engine 2 and Engine 3 to the 4000 Block of Highway 64 for the report of a vehicle on fire at the request of Henderson Fire Department for Mutual Aid. Engine 3 assisted with mop up of the fire using our "deck gun" and Engine 2 was ultimately canceled and returned to quarters. 

On Saturday, August 27th, 2016 the Elderville Lakeport VFD responded to the scene of a motor vehicle accident on FM 782. Arriving units found one vehicle in an upright position off of the roadway against the tree line. The driver of the vehicle was transported to an area hospital with non life threatening injuries.
