Rural by design
Tanker 1 carries the water where hydrants stop, so a fire on a dirt road gets the same attack as one in the village.

Sanbornton Fire & Rescue
One town crew answering fire, rescue, and medical calls across Sanbornton, day and night.
A combination department of full-time and part-time firefighters and EMTs, working out of the Sanborn Road station. Their stated aim is to protect the lives, property, and environment of Sanbornton's residents, visitors, and neighbors. This page is an independent design concept, laid out like a town register: the apparatus, the coverage, and the ways to reach the station, all in one place.
What we run, how we respond
The station keeps a working fleet for structure fire, rural water supply, wildland, and emergency medical calls. This is the run board, drawn from the public apparatus roster.

Coverage. The town of Sanbornton, Belknap County, around the clock. Automatic and mutual aid runs through Lakes Region Mutual Fire Aid, so neighboring towns roll in on the larger calls and Sanbornton rolls out on theirs.
Built for a Lakes Region town
Sanbornton is spread out: back roads, woodland, and shoreline near Lake Winnisquam. The response plan is shaped around that, not a downtown grid.
Around the clock
The station is staffed daily and answers emergency calls at any hour through 911, backed by the county dispatch network.
Never alone on a call
Membership in Lakes Region Mutual Fire Aid means help from neighboring departments is part of the plan, not an afterthought.
A small town runs on the people who show up
Sanbornton Fire & Rescue is a combination department, which means there is real room for local firefighters and EMTs who want to serve where they live. If you have thought about it, the station is the place to ask.
Call the station. The non-emergency line reaches the people who can answer.
