Join us in downtown Port Townsend for a day of Firefighter Fun & Games! In celebration of Fire Prevention Week EJFR will be showcasing our skills with demonstrations and even letting the crowd get involved! No RSVP required – all are welcome to attend.
In 2022 EJFR celebrated 150 years of fire service to our community! Since then, we’ve decided to mark Fire Prevention Week with a Fire and Rescue Fest highlighting EJFR’s unique skills and abilities with an event that all-ages can participate in and enjoy.
- Tour your local, and some antique fire apparatus
- Tour a helicopter – weather permitting, our partners at Airlift Northwest & Life Flight will be landing at Memorial Field
- Participate in some firefighting games such as the bucket brigade
- Watch a live firefighting demonstration – this year we’ll feature EJFR’s Ladder Truck, ‘Ladder 1’
- Tour the Jefferson County Historical Museum – adjacent to our event and free for attendees
- Enter the Creative Coloring & Art Contest – winners announced during the Fest and printed in the PT Leader the following week
- See the State Fire Marshals Fire Sprinkler Trailer
- Learn to “Plan Your Escape” in the event of a fire by practicing in Jefferson County’s Fire Safety Trailer
- Meet EJFR and other local emergency response partners

SEE YOU THERE!
