Poynor Fire Department

The Poynor Fire Department, founded in 1975, is the 24-hour public safety agency protecting the citizens of Poynor and the surrounding areas from the dangers of fire and other disasters. The PFD also provides first-response emergency medical care and assists victims during a time of crisis. The agency is an all-volunteer organization consisting of 13 members, which are lead by a 4 member administration. The department is governed by the commissioners of the Henderson County Emergency Services District (ESD) No. 3. The agency currently operates 3 pieces of apparatus: Brush 5871, Brush 5872, and Engine 5850. The department also maintains a privately-owned watercraft for water-based issues.
