Since the founding of the 14 man Hauppauge Fire Company over 70 years ago, the job of protecting the District from fire and other disaster has become infinitely more complex. Hauppauge's rural atmosphere is a thing of the past. We are home to major businesses, hotels and thousands of residents. We share responsibility for protecting the world headquarters of Computer Associates with our neighbors, the Central Islip Fire District. Each day huge quantities of hazardous materials are transported through our District. Each day tens of thousands of people come to Hauppauge to earn their living. Times have changed and we have changed with them. Our training, a top priority for the Fire District, is intense and constantly ongoing. We train, not only for the routine fires, but for hazardous materials incidents, high rise fires, terrorist and bomb incidents, plane crashes, extricating crash victims and rescuing individuals trapped in building or underground collapses.

Our officers receive specialized training in fire service management and incident command. Our apparatus is modern and well equipped. Our members come from all walks of life and from all professions with each member bringing something special to the organization in the way of knowledge and talent.

A lot has changed in these many years, but one thing remains constant - our dedication to the protection of life and property. The kind of dedication that comes from giving freely of yourself to help your neighbors. The kind of dedication that comes from being a professional volunteer firefighter.
