The history of the development of human society proves that man has known since ancient times two powerful elements: water and fire. Elements that made his life easier. but they often threatened him. Experience has taught people that effectively facing the elements and natural disasters, fighting to save the values created by human work and nature, is possible only through collectively organized protection. That is why the first voluntary organizations of those who fight fire or flood very selflessly are formed. On August 21, 1751, as a fire protection measure, Maria Theresa issued an "Order to put out the fire for the towns, towns and villages of the Moravian Margraviate", according to which every citizen was called to account for non-compliance. In the 1960s, rumors spread of us about the establishment of fire brigades abroad, but it was not until 1864 that the 1st Czech Volunteer Fire Brigade was established in Velvary. In 1896, 822 churches were already registered in 35 counties. Of which in Moravia 763 with 21 thousand members. At the same time, the history of the Volunteer Fire Brigade in Sobíňov, which was founded in 1881 according to modest written documents, begins to be written.
When Sobíňov caught a big fire in 1880, a long-term problem with water shortage manifested itself and 7 buildings burned down in the village. Due to this disaster, many residents built ponds and the municipal office began to think about establishing a fire brigade, which was established a year later in 1881.
The choir soon received a hand-held syringe thanks to Mr. Zvolánek, who was the mayor of the village at the time. In 1885, the corps numbered 20 active members and a fire station was built on the square.
Sobiňov firefighters helped to eliminate fires in the area, for example in Krucemburk, where in 1893 burned down to 100 buildings. The money collected by the citizens among themselves to help Mr. Vašíček, who was caught in April 1923 by the roof from a spark from the train, was given to the choir to buy a new syringe after it was returned. In 1929, the commander of the corps was Mr. Alois Janáček.
However, Sobíňov firefighters were known not only for extinguishing fires. Every year they organized 3 dance parties and the choir also had its own library, which had up to 300 volumes, which in 1920 were handed over to the municipal library. Thanks to Mr. Janáček's teacher, the firefighters also played in the theater, which formed a large part of the income after 1920. However, after the occupation by German troops, the theater in the village ended.
In 1932, the reconstruction of the fire station began with the help of the citizens of Sobíňov, who performed most of the work for free. In 1936, the Corps purchased a new motorized syringe, which was very useful in the fire of 1937. During World War II, the activities of firefighters were very limited, and after that they participated mainly in the removal of ammunition and vehicle wrecks.
In the 1950s, the corps received the first Linkol fire truck, but soon the unrecoverable radiator broke near it, and the car was scrapped. Then a OPEL box fire truck was purchased, which was canceled in 1979 and replaced by a GAZ car. In 1980, the PS 8 was replaced by a new PS 12 syringe. In 1981, the corps was assigned the Praga RN Cas 16 "ERENA" car, which served the corps until 1984, when the corps received the Škoda 706 RTH tank, which we still have today. In 1996, there was a decline in the fire brigade. However, this difficult period, which also affected other churches, was overcome and the turning point came in the middle of 2000, when a team of young firefighters, managed by the Hečeks, managed to put together. In 2002, two women's teams started operating. There is a regular fairground entertainment, in cooperation with the OÚ and a ball. The PS 12 syringe was redesigned. In 2006, the Avie 30 vehicle was purchased from SDH Chotěboř. In 2009, the PS 12 machine was redesigned and the TAZ 1500 engine is now used mainly for sports purposes, although it is also ready for intervention. In April 2010, a burning of witches took place. That year, a Ford Tranzit vehicle was purchased, which was soon included in the trip. Avia was sold to Dolní Krupá. In 2011, Transit was also equipped with a lighthouse warning ramp. In the same year, celebrations of the 130th anniversary of the founding of the church, when a new battalion was consecrated, were held.
