The mission of Ripley Volunteer Fire Department is to respond to emergencies, protect life and property through education and service. Pride and commitment will be the focus of customer service to the community, using available resources. 

 

 

       The Ripley Fire Department was formed in 1946 and has been proudly serving the citizens of Jackson County since that time. Our district encompasses 135 square miles of rural West Virginia, with a population of 11,400. Within our district are the City of Ripley, the communities of Evans, Fairplain, Gay, and the surrounding area. The Department currently rosters fourty five (45), active, all volunteer, “Always Ready, Always Able” firefighters, that on average respond to 700 to 800 alarms annually. We operate three engine companies, one medium duty rescue company, and one light duty rescue/utility companies, providing fire suppression, vehicular and technical rescue, ALS first responders and fire prevention/education services.
