Becoming a Volunteer
Being a volunteer with Granite Falls Fire Department can be fun and rewarding. To apply to become a volunteer: fill out the application and print it, visit the station and introduce yourself, attend four Monday night meetings, and the membership will vote on your membership status.
Being a volunteer not only offers an exciting hobby or career but the State of North Carolina gives volunteers a retirement program after providing 20 years of service. If you are interested in giving back to your community stop by or give us a call.

On Monday, September 9th, the Granite Falls Fire Department will be conducting a live burn training exercise at a house located at 19 Pine Street.
Traffic closures will be in effect on Pine Street from just past Cascade Lane to Falls Avenue on the side where the Baird House Transportation Museum is located, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. No other traffic interruptions are expected.
The structure will be burned to its foundation, but smoldering embers will be visible inside the foundation after the training exercise is completed.
Residents in this area that have breathing difficulties should keep their windows closed and their HVAC systems off during this time frame. Town residents should not be alarmed to see a column of smoke from this area during this time.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call the Granite Falls Fire Department at 396-2379.
