Firefighters

Fire Operations are broken down into three basic areas; structure fires, wildland fires and extrication/rescue.  Each area requires equipment and training unique to the task. 

All fire fighters are trained in structure fire and extrication/rescue operations. 

Many choose to undergo the physical and technical training required for wildland

firefighting as well.

Fire calls for our department are normally either grass or forest fires, housefires

(or other type of buildings, example: barns), or car fires. Each involves different techniques

and equipment to handle. We also respond to calls to assist other fire departments

in our area; this is called mutual aid.
