Information about the Wykoff First Responders:
Wykoff First Responders started as a volunteer ambulance service run by the fire department. In the mid 70's the ambulance started as a seperate city service and operated that way until April of 2005. After pleas to the community for new members were unanswered we were unable to keep the 24/7 staffing requiered for an ambulance service. It was decided to continue as a first responder squad. At that time and our service area was split up with surrounding ambulance services of Spring Valley, Preston, and Chatfield.
