If you are planning to burn brush from Fall cleanup, please take a few extra minutes and make that courteous phone call to our dispatchers! It prevents paging out fire departments when they are not needed.

A couple questions you may be asked:
What is the address of the controlled burn?
What are you burning?
What is the duration of time you plan to burn?
Contact Number
Person responsible for the controlled burn

This year we served 400 hot dogs and nearly 20 gallons of hot chocolate at this year's trick or treating. As always we loved seeing all of the costumes, even if we had to hear "si### sevvvven" for the 72nd time. With Halloween on a Saturday next year which allows us more time to setup, we're brainstorming on how to make next year even bigger yet. Thanks for stopping by!

Tired of waiting for the garden hose to fill up that summer pool? We are once again offering pool fills for our district at $150 per load (2k gal). Please message us or reach out to a firefighter to get scheduled; we'd like to get these all knocked out within the next week or so.

Congratulations to Connor and Gavin McLaughlin, recipients of the Denver Fire Department Scholarship for 2025! Connor and Gavin are both going to the Missouri welding Institute in Nevada, Missouri in early July where they will complete their five month welding and pipe fitting certifications. They plan on returning back to Denver upon completion where welding jobs are already waiting for them in the Cedar Valley. They both have plans to make application to become a volunteer Denver Firefighter when they return.
