Fire Prevention and Awareness

During 2021, our volunteer firefighters responded to 27 structure fires, 90 Wildland fires, 14 vehicle fires, 19 dumpster/trash fires, and over 100 motor vehicle accidents. In total, our volunteers clocked almost 3,000 hours of service in the field in 2021 alone!

It is important to remember that many of us live and work in remote areas of Fremont County and it takes extra time to get there. So when a fire call goes out, it takes time for our Volunteer Fire Fighters to travel from their jobs or homes to the Fire Hall. Then it takes additional time for the Fire Trucks to travel to the location of the fire. The more our citizens can do to prevent fires in the first place, the better equipped our communities will be to keep everyone safe!

Here, you can find links to valuable information that will help you be proactive in keeping yourself and others safe from the threat of a fire. If followed, these tips will help keep everyone safer at home, school, campus, work, and wherever you might find yourself.
