The Ashburn Volunteer Fire and Rescue started in 1944 after the small farming community suffered a devastating house fire.

Since then, Ashburn has grown considerably in size. It was Ray Muth who was instrumental in making sure Ashburn’s Fire Department was equipped for the changing population size. He was also inducted into the Fire Service Hall of Fame.

Continue following your navigation.

As you drive through Ashburn, it’s crazy to think less than 100 years ago, this was all farmland!
