Last night E61 responded to a vehicle fire in their first due
Early this morning at approximately 3:00 AM, Station 63 was dispatched to a reported structure fire. Ladder 63 arrived on scene first, confirmed a working fire, and initiated an offensive attack. Crews were able to make a quick stop on the fire, containing it to the area of origin.
Tavares Fire Department arrived on scene and completed the primary search, while Lake County Fire Rescue provided water supply support with a tanker.
Strong teamwork from all agencies helped bring the incident under control quickly.

Saturday Pump Day 🔥
This morning our members headed out to the Sleepy Hollow complex for some big water drills. Master streams are a vital tool during large defensive operations, and today’s focus was on reverse lays, maximizing hydrants, and moving as much water as possible.
Engine 62 demonstrated just that—by triple tapping the hydrant, they were able to supply over 2,000 gallons per minute.
If you’re looking to join a department that values a culture of training and firemanship—even on the weekends—Leesburg Fire Department is the place.
🚒 Our hiring process is open now. Don’t miss your chance to be part of that culture.

LFD is currently collecting performance times for essential fireground skills. These times are being averaged to establish departmental standards that all members—both new candidates and current firefighters—are expected to meet and maintain.
Today’s evaluation focused on single-firefighter forcible entry through an inward-swinging door. This initiative reflects LFD’s commitment to upholding high standards of proficiency, ensuring our firefighters are prepared to perform effectively and safely in the field.
