Gulf Breeze Volunteer Fire Department
The Gulf Breeze Volunteer Department is comprised of twenty volunteer firefighters, serving a population of 6,189. In October 1955, the Gulf Breeze Volunteer Fire Department was incorporated as a "non-profit" organization. It was not until 1957, after several fund and membership drives, that the Fire Department was able to purchase their first fire truck. The fire truck with approximately 1000 feet of hose cost $13,5000. After purchasing the truck, there was the immediate problem of a place to keep it. The Fire Station, which is a concrete block structure, was built in 1957 and has been added to several times. Mr. and Mrs. Millard Gilmore gave the department the deed to the property where the fire house stands. The current building size is approximately 5000 square feet; it houses four vehicles. A second concrete building, 24 feet wide by 65 feet long houses a 22 foot rescue boat and one vehicle. Frequently Called Numbers
