Brief History
Spring Lake Fire Company No. 1 was the first fire company to serve and help protect the residents of Spring Lake and neighboring towns. The first regular meeting was held on Nov 11, 1890. What makes Fire Co., No. 1 unique is the members own, maintain and insure the firehouse, as well as owning 2 of the 3 fire trucks housed at the station. In today's high cost of equipment and buildings most fire companies are funded 100% by municipalities. Our purchases were made possible by the Generous donations from the residents & businesses over the past 108 years. We pride ourselves in still being able to purchase new apparatus through donations rather than impacting the municipal budget. To this day the Fire company is still manned solely by Volunteers.
