Parks Committee

Preserving, enhancing and growing our community parks.

The four areas that compose our East Rochester parks are, like many other small communities, one of the most valuable resources we have. It is their preservation, enhancement, and growth that is the goal of our committee. Started, or as some may say, resurrected in 2006, we are a volunteer citizens' group working hand-in-hand with our local government and Department of Public Works to keep our parks at their best.

As stated earlier, our group is made up of community members wishing to help in some form or another. Anyone can join and we encourage all input from our village residents. Whether it is a suggestion, a donation of some kind, or even volunteering to help on a project, our group is eager for all input.

We currently have a number of projects available to our residents, businesses and even outside interests who wish to add to our parks' beauty.

Department of Public Works

The Depatment of Public Works is responsible for maintaining Town/Village parks and recreation areas including lodges and pavilions, mowing, clean-up, maintenance of park equipment, spray park facilities, playground equipment and ball fields. For more information on parks or reserving facilities please call the Town/Village Clerk's Office at (585) 586-3553.

EAST ROCHESTER VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT--125 YEARS OF SERVICE

EAST ROCHESTER VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT--125 YEARS OF SERVICE Read more

On May 23, 1898, a group of businessmen from Despatch (as East Rochester was known until 1906) met at Branshaud’s Hall on East Commercial Street to set up the first fire department.  On May 29th, the first official meeting was held, and the Despatch Fire District was formed.  During subsequent meetings committees were formed to find estimates for needed equipment, as well as for property and a fire hall.  It was determined that $1800.00 was the amount needed to outfit this first department.  Equipment included:  one dozen rubber coats, boots, and helmets, a hose cart, an alarm bell, a ladder truck, and three chemical carts.  Needless to say, the first fire trucks were either pulled by horses or pulled by hand.
