About Us

Welcome to the
Eagle River Fire Protection District

Welcome to the Eagle River Fire Protection District!

Each day, the men and women of Eagle River Fire dedicate themselves to protecting the communities we serve. From front-line firefighter to administrative staff, every employee of Eagle River Fire understands their role in ensuring community well-being and recognizes both the responsibility and privilege of serving.

Our Firefighters suppress structure and wildland fires, extricate people trapped in cars, stop spills of hazardous materials, give life-saving emergency medical care, and rescue those caught in a roaring river or on the steep side of a mountain. Behind the scenes, Eagle River Fire’s Administrative Staff work tirelessly to support these vital services and fulfill their role as good stewards of the community’s investment in fire protection and emergency response.

Whether it’s responding to emergency calls, conducting fire safety inspections, or providing community education, the team comprising Eagle River Fire maintains a constant state of readiness. Much more than a slogan, “Ready to Serve,” calls upon each member of the organization to anticipate, prepare, and fulfill their role in protecting the communities we serve, and by living the values of Respect, Integrity, Professional Excellence, and Service, earn their trust.

I invite you to explore our website. I am confident that as you do, you will see evidence of the commitment to protection and service of our team.

Again, welcome to the Eagle River Fire Protection District.

Karl Bauer

— Chief of Eagle River Fire Protection District
