| Hits: 445
On Mar 6, 2019 The Elderville Lakeport VFD participated in a Full Scale Emergency Exercise at the East Texas Regional Airport that was Hosted by the airport and Gregg County Sheriffs office. In addition to Elderville Lakeport VFD, Kilgore FD, Longview FD, Champion EMS, Hopkins County EMS, Flight For Life, Longview CERT, Area Hospitals, and others all participated in this drill.
The goal of an exercise like this is to improve the readiness of the departments that participate as well as highlight any deficiencies to help us improve out response to a major mass casualty incident. Dozens of volunteer "patients" are distributed at a scene and the various agencies are tasked with locating, triaging and transporting the casualties as well as dealing fire, or other hazards that are presented with the scenario.

Annual Pump Testing
| | Hits: 2275
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.
