LEWES FIRE DEPARTMENT
Station 82

The Lewes Fire Department, organized in 1796, celebrated its 200th Anniversary in 1996.

The Department has its headquarters at 347 Savannah Road in Lewes. The Department operates out of a beautiful colonial style firehouse dedicated in 1992. Station 2 is located just off Route One at Nassau and was completed in 1990. And, the Lewes/Rehoboth Station 3, located on Route 24, was dedicated on May 24, 2003. Station 3 is a joint project by the Lewes and Rehoboth Fire Companies and was built to serve the ever increasing population of the Angola area.

Together the three stations provide all fire, rescue and emergency medical services to the community twenty-four hours a day. Visitors are invited to stop by and visit the Lewes Fire Department Museum located at Station 82 at 347 Savannah Road. You will also enjoy seeing the Department's 1901 horse cart, and totally restored 1925 American La France Pumper.

Good luck on this week's contest!
