The Botsford company was established in 1949, the last of the five independent volunteer fire organizations that exist in town. The yellowish lime-green color of the company's apparatus distinguishes it from the others.
The company was among the first in the town to purchase air packs for its firefighters and was the first to buy a brush fire truck, a specially designed pickup truck used to fight grass and brush fires.
The company also rents the second floor of its station for use as a dance studio.
