Cheyenne Fire and Rescue is an all-risk fire department that provides numerous types of services to the community and its citizens. With an ever growing community, Cheyenne Firefighters have become increasingly relied upon, and utilized, for our many services. Responses consist of structure, brush, and miscellaneous fires, high/low angle rescue, advanced life support (ALS) for medical emergencies,

commercial fire alarms, vehicle accidents, vehicle fires, public assists, CO alarms, smoke detector alarms, railroad accidents, ice and water rescues, HAZMAT, gas leaks, natural disasters, and list can go on and on. Last year we responded to nearly 8,000 calls among the 5 fire stations that serve the city limits. Daily you will find a minimum of 20 suppression firefighters staffing (1) battalion chief, (1) aerial ladder truck, and (5) ALS rescue engines. Not to mention the numerous personnel leading the prevention, training, EMS, and administration divisions. Available to deploy as Region 7 resources are a HAZMAT Team and Technical Rescue Team.

Do you live in the Western Hills area?

Are you along the I-25 corridor?

Do you want to know more about the prescribed fire operations that will be occurring at FE Warren AFB in a couple of weeks?

Prescribed fire is a valuable tool in decreasing wildfire potential, reducing area threat, and also encourages environmental health.

Remembering Booker

Today marks the 2nd anniversary of losing one of our own. Aaron Booker was a kind, adventurous, and dedicated man who passed away on August 5, 2023. We remember him today for his unwavering commitment to his family, friends, community, and faith. His selfless nature and love will continue to inspire all who knew him.

Aaron found true fulfillment in serving his community. He was an EMT and a Lieutenant/Firefighter for the City of Cheyenne Fire Department, joining the force in September 2003 and remaining a committed member until his untimely passing. Beyond his firefighting duties, Aaron was known for always lending a helping hand. He built fences, worked on the ambulance service and in the ER, and took on other side jobs to help others.

An avid outdoorsman, Aaron loved spending his free time with loved ones, enjoying activities like riding ATVs, camping, kayaking, fishing, and hunting. His friends remember the countless miles of fence he helped build and the hundreds of logs he cut for firewood—a testament to his generous and selfless spirit.

Aaron's legacy of love and selflessness will live on in all of us. May he rest in peace.
