Behind the Scenes: Fire and Rescue

Denisa and Missy

Welcome to our latest edition of Behind the Scenes:  Denisa and Missy (Mother and Daughter)

Missy accomplished taking two classes Fire 1 and EMT Basic all in one semester last fall! She passed both classes with flying colors, in addition to the National Registry test for her EMT license! Denisa, with encouragement from Missy, took EMT Basic and she also passed the class and all tests!  MATC has written an article featuring both of them for MATC’s “Transformations Magazine”, which will be published later this year in the fall!

Behind the Scenes 2024!

The Cedarburg Fire Department is a community volunteer department made up of your neighbors, your friends and your relatives. We are committed to providing emergency services and fund raising activities to make the Cedarburg Fire Department the best of the best. It is only with your support by volunteering, that we can continue to provide first class service to our community. Not only is there a role for those that wish to fight fires and take care of the sick and injured, but there is another important role of fund raising that helps our community. It is through these fund raising efforts that allows the fire department to purchase our equipment and donate it back to Cedarburg. Just recently, we purchased a new fire engine at a cost of over $750,000.00 that will be donated back to the city. No tax dollars were spent, just the sweat and hard work of those who volunteer at our fund raising events to give back to the community. CFD is a family and there is room for everyone in our family. Please consider joining today.
