Fire Station Tours
If you would like information on tours please contact the Fire Prevention Bureau
Pictured are some young students touring the station and being educated on fire safety. You are never to young to learn about how to handle emergencies. We also like to let the children see firefighters in their full gear so they do not run from them when they see them inside a structure to rescue them. We like for them to go through the ambulances and show them where they would lay if they ever needed an emergency trip to the hospital and all of them love to sit inside of the fire trucks and wear their fire hats!
