Can you visit for birthday parties or events?

We love participating in community events when possible! Our firefighters enjoy visiting schools, birthday parties, neighborhood events, and community gatherings to educate the public about fire safety.

Visits are subject to availability and may be cancelled if we receive emergency calls. To request a visit, please contact us at least 3-4 weeks in advance. Include:

  • Event date, time, and location
  • Expected number of attendees
  • Age group (if children)
  • Desired activities (truck viewing, fire safety talk, photos)

There is no charge for community visits, but donations to support our volunteer department are always appreciated.
