Brook-Iroquois Township
Volunteer Fire Department

The Brook-Iroquois Township Volunteer Fire Department serves the Town of Brook and the townships of Iroquois, Washington, and southern Jackson with seven apparatus and 20 volunteers.

 

The department operates a medical/command vehicle, two brush trucks, a primary engine, a secondary engine/tanker, two tankers, and an aerial ladder truck. They also are proud of their first motorized apparatus, their 1925 Model T chemical/hose truck.

History: The department was formally organized on March 7, 1916, by an action by the Brook town board, the same time a water supply system was installed in the town. Prior to this time, residents were alerted that there was a fire by a fire bell which was rung, and any available volunteer grabbed ladders and buckets and ran to the fire to help.

​

We are very proud and thankful for those who currently volunteer their time and those who have volunteered in the past. Their efforts over the years have gone a long way in helping Brook and the surrounding communities.
