Tri-Community Volunteer Fire Department

We have received several calls regarding smoke in our area. The smoky haze is from controlled burns in north Georgia earlier today. The air should clear out over the next few hours.

Georgia Forestry will be conducting several prescribed burns in Walker County today. Burns are planned on 1,000 acres near 332 Blue Hole Rd; 1,004 acres near Forest Service Rd 231, and 20 acres near 655 Walnut Grove. Smoke will be visible in these areas.

Join us in congratulating Samuel Mossbeck on his promotion to Lieutenant, assigned to Station 4.

Lt. Mossbeck has been a member of our department since 2021, and has been intentional about being involved with training and department activities. Under his leadership, he aims to help members be confident, competent, and cohesive.

Congratulations Lt. Mossbeck, and thank you for your contributions in the department.
