The Waxhaw Community Fire Department & Rescue Squad is an independent non-profit 501 (c) fire department comprised of dedicated men & women who consider each other and those we serve as family. We are committed to providing exemplary emergency services to you, our extended family. Although our primary function is to assist you in an emergency, we also deliver prevention education and services to keep you from suffering a tragedy in the first place. We also strive to be professionals in all interactions with each other, our public safety partners, and our community.
Our vision is to provide all services and programs in a manner that exceeds your expectations. In this effort, we welcome you to call, e-mail, post on social media, or stop by and tell us what you expect from us. I have been the fire chief for the past 9 months and have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the Waxhaw and greater Union County community. We have spent this time building a vision, adopting values, and aligning our operations with our vision and values. Now we need your help to attain our vision of serving you beyond your expectations. In the very near future we will be hosting stakeholder meetings to evaluate your expectations of us and how best we can exceed those expectations. Prior to and after these meetings we encourage you to drop us a note or stop by to let us know how we are doing, how we can serve you better, and what you expect of us.
If you are interested in working or volunteering for the fire department, please click on paid staff positions available, download the application, and send via email, snail mail, or drop it by the station.

Sincerely,
Gregory R. Sharpe
