Would you like to get involved?

BFD is currently accepting applications from candidates with NFPA Firefighter 1001 (1010) qualifications or equivalent experience. A class for untrained recruits is not currently scheduled.

Beiseker Fire Department accepts applications on an ongoing basis for both qualified firefighters and officers. Untrained personnel will be accepted when a recruit class is scheduled. Our firefighters staff the hall 24 hours a day, 365 days per year to ensure the fastest possible response times. Firefighters stay at the hall for 24 hour shifts conducting training, community engagement and fire prevention activities, as well as cooking together and sleeping at the hall. This model enables the department to extend membership to firefighters outside of the response area. There is no residency requirement.
