Swooope Volunteer Fire Company is very pleased to announce the graduation of one of our own, Tamara-Lynn Harley Bird who graduated today from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State College, College of Architecture and Urban Studies and Building Construction. Harley has worked very hard for this honor, and we are all very proud of her, and expect great things from her. 

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our firehouse cat “Bunkers”. Without a doubt our most famous and loved member, Bunkers has been a staple of the Swoope Volunteer Fire Company for many years. Bunkers brought joy to everyone who met him and provided snuggles to anyone who would sit still. We will always remember him and will forever be grateful of our time together. Rest In Peace Bunkers... we will take care of the mice from here. 😢
