Station Tours

Fire station tours are offered for all age groups with a minimum of two weeks notice.  Please remember that although you schedule a tour, firefighters and apparatus may not be available at your pre-arranged time as they will still be in service and subject to leaving on emergency response calls before, during and after the tour. 

For your protection, we restrict the tour group size as follows:

Tour times vary in length depending upon size of the group and type of presentation provided.                                    

 

Apparatus Visit

Fire engines/trucks and other vehicles may be scheduled to come to your school, business or special community event.  Although one or more of these apparatus may be in attendance at your location, please note that they will still be in service and subject to cancellation or early departure based on emergency response calls.  Because of this, it is important to designate easy entrance and exit parking spaces for the apparatus at your facility. 

Fire Extinguisher Training & Demonstration  

Businesses, civic groups and organizations can request a fire extinguisher educational presentation which includes information on the types and uses of various extinguishers and a demonstration with a "hands-on" practice drill.  Participants are provided with an opportunity to use a fire extinguisher on a controlled fire utilizing a training simulator after completing the instruction phase of the class.  The training and demonstration last approximately one hour and include:

 

Child Fire and Safety Program

The intent of the children's programs is to educate on youth the importance of basic fire and life safety, starting at daycare level.  Special appearances can be requested by "Freddie" (fire truck robot), and "Sparky" (fire dog).

Age and grade appropriate comprehensive fire safety and injury prevention curriculum offered to in-district schools with instruction modules on:

Senior Citizen Safety

Presentations are available for Senior Citizen groups regarding fire safety; kitchen/cooking safety; fall prevention; poison, food and medication safety; and fire and life safety for the disabled.

 

 

Community Emergency Response Teams

Members of our community are recruited and trained in life saving skills with emphasis on decision making skills, rescuer safety and doing the greatest good for the greatest number.  C.E.R.T. teams are organized so that they are an extension of first responder services offering immediate help to victims until professional services arrive in time of a disaster.

 

Please note that tours and programs are offered Monday - Friday.  After hours events are scheduled on a limited basis.
