Oregon Fire Protection District Welcome to the official page of Oregon Fire Protection District. The district serves a population of approximately 9,600 residents.

The Fire District is located in Oregon, Illinois and is comprised of over 120 square miles of incorporated and unincorporated areas of Central Ogle County, Illinois. Incorporated areas include the City of Oregon, Villages of Chana, Payne’s Point, and Daysville. Unincorporated areas include the townships of: Marion, Nashua-Oregon, Pine Rock, White Rock, Rockvale, and Taylor. Additionally, the district serves three state parks: Castle Rock, Lowden, and Lowden Miller State Forest. Along with these state parks, the district also covers many large Youth and Church camps. The mighty Rock River separates the district into nearly two equal parts, connected via Illinois RT-64 (Washington street) at Oregon, Illinois. The Oregon Fire Protection District serves its residents, stakeholders and visitors from two stations: Station 1, (District Headquarters), is located in the City of Oregon and Station 2, is located in the Village of Chana. The district is governed by a three member Board of Trustees appointed by the Ogle County Board. All Oregon Fire Protection District board meetings are open to the public and are held at 7:00 PM on the Second Wednesday of each month at the Oregon Fire Protection District Administrative Services Building, located at 106 S. First Street, Oregon, Illinois 61061. Currently, the fire district employs 25 paid on call members who respond to Fire, Rescue and Emergency Medical calls within the district. Full-Time Advanced Life Support Emergency Medical Services are provided by Licensed Paramedics 24 hours per day from our Headquarters Fire Station in Oregon Illinois. EMS services are currently contracted through ATS Inc. of Rockford Illinois. In the 2021/2022 fiscal year, the fire district expects to respond to approximately 1100 calls for service. Of these 1100 requests, over two thirds of these (700+) will be for Emergency Medical Services. The Oregon Fire Protection District is also a member of MABAS Division 18 which is comprised of other Ogle County Fire Departments and Fire Protection Districts. The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to provide backup assistance at large scale and/or special rescue (Water, Technical or Hazardous Materials) incidents that require additional manpower. With this MABAS 18 agreement, Oregon FPD will respond to these neighboring agencies in the same manner to provide additional services as needed. We encourage you to visit this page, as additional updates and Information will be added as they become available.

It’s fire prevention week! While we will be spreading the good word of fire safety to our local children throughout the week we also need everyone to know about the hazards of lithium ion batteries. Those battery’s come in everything anymore and the technology is great, but they are also causing more fires every year as well as causing many fire injuries and deaths. Take a peak at some of the information in the link.

Fire Prevention Week is quickly approaching. This year’s theme is “Charge Into Fire Safety. Safe Charging Is a Superpower,” and we have something SUPER in store for you next week! ⚡ We’ll be focusing on “H” of Take C.H.A.R.G.E., sharing how you can handle charging with care.

Don’t forget to download and share our free resources online and in-person. Help your community Take C.H.A.R.G.E. of Battery Safety!

Well, another AOP weekend in the books!

Thank you to everyone who made it to our open house! We tried to keep track of how many people came and have a rough number of 300. We were blown away by the support and great conversations with you all!

If you missed the open house that is ok, you can stop by anytime! As we have said before this is YOUR firehouse and we are fortunate enough to live in it! Stop by and see the station and talk to the crews and ask away with questions.

Thank you to the Ogle County Dispatchers who donated their time to have a booth at our event, we appreciate you all!

A big thank you to our members who donated a ton of their time this weekend to make the Open House go smooth as well as our obligation to AOP. Without our dedicated members non of this would be possible!

It’s here! See you all tonight! 4-7
