DVD DEANOVEC
Dobrovoljno vatrogasno društvo Deanovec osnovano je 29. listopada 1932. godine. Prvi predsjednik Društva bio je Ivan Badalić, dok je dužnost prvog zapovjednika obavljao Stjepan Badalić. Uz njih prvi osnivači i članovi Upravnog odbora bili su i Josip Čabrajec kao podzapovjednik, Franjo Lisjak kao tajnik i Ivan Keljak kao blagajnik. Nadzorni odbor su činili Josip Cobović, Emil Kocman, Stjepan Krulec, Josip Pezić i Petar Sruk. Četiri godine kasnije dolazi do promjene u vodstvu te podzapovjednikom postaje Josip Kurešić stariji, a tajnikom Ivan Rukavina. Tada dužnost vođe štrcara obavlja Franjo Salopek, dok je vođa penjača Ivan Keljak, a vođa čuvara Gjuro Bradić. Tadašnji spremištar bio je Josip Čabrajec. Uz njih su članovi Upravnog odbora bili i Jakob Ivanuš te Gjuro Petković. Kroz svoju povijest sudjelovali su na brojnim međunarodnim, državnim i lokalnim natjecanjima te su zasigurno jedan od najtrofejnijih vatrogasnih društava Vatrogasne zajednice grada Ivanić-Grada. Trenutno aktivno djeluje muška A ekipa, vatrogasni podmladak te ekipa mladeži. Najveći natjecateljski uspjeh ovog Društva su tri vatrogasne Olimpijade u Finskoj, Češkoj i Sloveniji na kojima su ostvarili zlatne rezultate. Trenutno broje 70 aktivnih članova te već 14. godinu za redom održavaju svoje kup natjecanje.
The Volunteer Fire Department (DVD) Deanovec was founded on October 29, 1932. The department's first president was Ivan Badalić, while Stjepan Badalić served as the first commander.

The Supervisory Board consisted of Josip Cobović, Emil Kocman, Stjepan Krulec, Josip Pezić, and Petar Sruk. Four years later, leadership changes occurred with Josip Kurešić Sr. becoming Assistant Commander and Ivan Rukavina taking over as Secretary. At that time, Franjo Salopek served as the leader of the pumpers (štrcari), Ivan Keljak as the leader of the climbers (penjači), and Gjuro Bradić as the leader of the guards (čuvari). The equipment manager was Josip Čabrajec, with Jakob Ivanuš and Gjuro Petković also serving on the Board. Throughout its history, the department has participated in numerous international, national, and local competitions, establishing itself as one of the most decorated fire departments within the Firefighting Community of Ivanić-Grad. Currently, the department maintains an active Men’s 'A' team, as well as children's and youth units. Their greatest competitive achievements include participating in three Firefighting Olympics (in Finland, the Czech Republic, and Slovenia), where they achieved gold results. Today, the department counts 70 active members and has successfully hosted its own Cup competition for 14 consecutive years.
