Description
JCRFPD is responsible for providing fire and EMS services seven days a week, 24 hours a day. Volunteers are dedicated to accomplishing this mission and commit 4-12 hours per week devoted to training, emergency response and other activities for the benefit of the community. All members are expected to attend 70% of weekly fire training sessions and monthly EMS training.

The Junction City Rural Fire Protection District is a combination fire department with 5 career staff and approximately 30 volunteers. The District requires the career staff and volunteers to attend training exercises, work effectively together and respond on calls. In 2015, JCRFPD responded to over 1,400 calls, averaging about 116 calls a month. About 90% of the calls we respond to are medical calls. While fire calls are less frequent, it is important to keep firefighting skills sharp so every Thursday we have fire drill to learn new skills and keep current the skills we have learned. People volunteer with the fire department for different reasons. Some are pursuing their goal of becoming a career firefighter, while others enjoy serving their community. Whatever the reason, the volunteer membership support one another, work hard and have FUN!!
