We are closing the firehouses to the public. Signs advising no visitors should be posted in all stations.
The one thing that will not be shut down is the volunteer fire service responding to emergencies in the State of Delaware. As volunteers, we have chosen to protect our own, our communities, as well as our fire districts. The volunteer fire service personnel will focus on taking a proactive and preventative approach to keep communities safe.
While undertaking precautions and many other safety measures with respect to the pandemic coronavirus - we will respond as needed within our fire district.
It is not an easy or popular decision to make these decisions; however, Lewes FD believes this is an imperative decision in order to promote safety and well-being of our members, community residents and fire district.
Stay Safe Everyone
