Description
The Dodgeville Fire Department has a long and proud tradition of neighbors serving neighbors. We are currently looking for upstanding, motivated adults to join our team. Our department is staffed by volunteers that respond at a moments notice to help family, friends, and strangers alike. In an age where people are going in so many different directions, it is easy to pass on such an opportunity. The question we ask is, "If not you, then who?" Call today to find out more! (608) 935-3035.

We are happy to meet and discuss any questions you have before a formal application is needed. We are a volunteer department with an ISO class rating of 3, which is the same rating that many full time departments in our state have. We provide for all training required, both thru the technical college as well as in-house training. We respond to a variety of emergencies, including structure fires, vehicle fires, traffic accidents, missing persons, hazardous material, ice rescue, and the ever-present "unknown".

Once a member has completed the required fire training, we offer the opportunity for advancement to the driver/pump operator position.
