Long Lake - A Real Adirondack Experience

Welcome to the Long Lake and Raquette Lake Volunteer Fire Department. As the Town of Long Lake serves two hamlets it has two separate fire departments. It is the mission of the Long Lake and Raquette Lake Volunteer Fire Departments to minimize the loss of life and property for its fire service recipients in the Town of Long Lake from fires, natural disasters, life threatening situations and to assist other emergency agencies. It is their goal to perform these services in a professional and efficient manner by maintaining effective training, fire prevention, fire suppression and emergency response.

The Long Lake and Raquette Lake Fire Departments are all volunteer emergency men and women serving the community.
