Hickory Flat Volunteers Donate Fire Station to County

The former Hickory Flat Volunteer Fire Department transferred ownership of Fire Station 32 and its assets to Cherokee County Fire & Emergency Services in January. Included with the donation was a 1994 Grummen fire truck.

Attending the ceremony were Chief Tim Prather, Retired Chief Larry Barry, Retired Chief Tim Crossland, Board Members Mark Cornelius and Jack Tuszynski.

Located on Sugar Pike Road in Canton, Station 32 has served the Hickory Flat area for decades. Transferring ownership to the County will ensure that the property continues to provide emergency services in years to come.

We believe that passing ownership on to the County is the right thing to do, said Tim Crossland, retired HFVFD chief. The move is necessary to become compliant with new state rules and regulations regarding volunteer fire departments. We are pleased that the property will continue to benefit the residents of Hickory Flat.
