The Basalt & Rural Fire Protection District provides services with a volunteer force supported by a small full time staff that performs most of the administrative functions and day-to-day tasks. Our volunteers are viewed as an integral part of our success. Without volunteers the District would not be able to provide the numerous services we currently offer.
As part of the emergency services, our organization gives you the satisfaction of meeting new challenges, working with fellow members on difficult calls, and seeing the face of someone who can’t even begin to express how grateful they are that you have arrived to help them.
