Prescott Fire Department

The Prescott Fire Department service is comprised of 29 volunteer professional firefighters. The Department is led by Fire Chief Renny Rayner. In addition to firefighting and life-saving services, the Department's emphasis is on fire prevention, providing fire inspection, and fire education programs throughout the community. 

Fire Prevention Week - October 9 - 15, 2022

Fire Prevention Week (FPW) is an international fire safety initiative that is part of October - Fire Awareness Month and this year, FPW and Sparky the Fire Dog are celebrating 100 years of bringing awareness and fire safety to communities everywhere. Cold Lake Fire-Rescue is proud to be a partner with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and help to educate the Cold Lake community on fire safety during Fire Prevention Week - Oct. 9 to 15.  

The message for 2022 is "Fire won't wait. Plan your escape." and Sparky has the following tips to plan your escape:

• Draw a map of your home, showing all doors and windows
• Visit each room and find two ways out (if possible), making sure each family member can see where to go to get out
• Make sure all windows and doors open easily from the INSIDE
• Make sure your home has smoke alarms and test them to make sure they are working properly
• Pick a meeting place outside near the front of your home for everyone to meet up
• Once outside and everyone is accounted for, call a neighbour or extended family, and let them know you are safe
• Make sure your house or building number can be seen from the street
• Make sure everyone in your home knows how to dial 911
• Talk about your plan with everyone in the family and practice your fire drill at least twice a year

2022 Fire Prevention Week runs from Oct. 9 – 15 and the Prescott Fire Department is happy to be celebrating in person this year!

You are invited to join the Prescott Fire Department for our Open House on October 15^th from 11 AM – 2 PM.  There will be equipment displays, truck displays, hall tours and a free family BBQ.  We hope to see you there!
