.










Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company, 4028 Main Street, Chincoteague Island, Virginia. Accomack County Station 3. Organized in May of 1924 and chartered in 1925, the original, left side of the Main Street station was built in 1930, the addition to the left was built in 1957. Fire apparatus moved to the Cropper Street Station in 2017.
Cropper Street Station: 6293 Cropper Street, Chincoteague Island, Virginia. Used since 2017 to better serve the larger apparatus until the new station is dedicated sometime in late spring 2018.
Future Station: 5175 Chicken City Road, Chincoteague Island, Virginia. Land was purchased along Chicken City Road for a future state-of-the-art station in 2011. The planning and other issues pushed the groundbreaking until April 4, 2017. Construction is estimated at 13 months. This is what the progress looked like as of New Years Day 2018.
