Tucked away in the northwest of Rhode Island, Harmony is
one of three villages that make up the Town of Glocester. The other two
villages are Chepachet and West Glocester. Each village has its own
Fire District and coverage
area. Harmony is a rural village with borders on Smithfield , Burrillville
and Scituate. US Rt.44 (Putnam Pike) runs like a central artery right through the village and
the Fire Station is located at #194 Putnam Pike. The Fire Station has a paid chief and
the crew consists of volunteers from all walks of life. The fire station
receives no funds from the town. All expenses are paid by the
Fire Tax , various grants and donations. The
Harmony Fire District Board oversees the
operations.
The Harmony Fire Station is not manned at all times but services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Should
an emergency arise a call to 911 will send out the call for the volunteers.
Often during the day some volunteers are at the station and Monday - Friday,
8:30am - 4:00pm the Tax Collector is at the station. There is also a
emergency call box located on the front of the Fire Station.
Look! Here is a Satellite photo of the
station.
