When the alarm sounds, we answer.
No paycheck. No fanfare. Just neighbors looking out for neighbors in Northampton County since 1979.
Neighbors helping neighbors since 1979.
We’re not a county crew or a company. We’re the people who live down the road from you.
Every member is a volunteer. We train on our own time, leave dinner on the table when the pagers go off, and answer the call day or night. Not for a paycheck. Because Garysburg is our home too.
