Station 52

             Station 52 was originally built in 1991 and opened in the spring of 1992.  This station served as the second operating station for White River Township and dramatically reduced response times to the exploding State Road 135 "corridor" as well as the entire northern end of the fire district.  Land for the building was originally sought in the area of Fairview and Peterman Roads, but due to community involvement and support, land was purchased further east at its present location at 398 Meridian Parke Lane.   In the summer of 2002, the building was heavily damaged by a late season tornado forcing a six-month hiatus from using the facility.  Ironically, this was literally days after completion of minor remodel and re-roofing project.  The crew was temporarily re-located to a Greenwood City fire station on Fry Road where a new working relationship was forged.  Today, the station serves as a popular "landmark" for many of the residents in the area as well as continues to be the most active station for the department, averaging several calls per day.
