On Tuesday, January 20, 2026, at 2:37 pm, the Chestertown Volunteer Fire Company, along with multiple mutual aid companies… Was dispatched for the structure fire at 101 Poplar Road… cross intersecting street – South Lynchburg Street. First arriving fire suppression was Chestertown’s Squad 6. They found a single-family dwelling well involved with fire, with about 60% of the house actively burning. A propane tank behind the house, directly exposed to fire, had popped off the relief valve, and was actively venting.
On Friday, January 2, 2026, the Chestertown Volunteer Fire Company, along with several mutual aid companies, was dispatched to a reported structure fire in the 200 block of Birch Run Road. The incident occurred in the Mile Tree Village area of Chestertown, near Byford Heights.
In 2025, Chestertown VFC responded to 749 calls for service, resulting in 842 individual unit responses. While we responded to 749 calls, not every call is a “fire.” Our members handle a wide range of emergencies, including motor vehicle collisions, unintentional fire alarm activations, wires down, and yes, even the occasional cat stuck in a tree.
