Reno Firefighters Association

Congratulations to our latest class of retirees. Thank you so much for your many years of service and dedication to the Reno and Sparks Fire departments. 

🚒☀️ School’s out for summer! Sparks firefighters helped Greenbrae Elementary celebrate the last day of school with Field Day fun, and lots of smiles. Have a safe and amazing summer, everyone!

Recently, 6 members of the Reno Fire Department completed an intense 40-hour Battalion Chief Academy —building knowledge, skills, and abilities for incident management, organizational leadership, and employee mentoring. Great work by all!

Reno Firefighters with auto aid from TMF made an aggressive attack to stop a fast moving wind driven brush fire that was immediately threatening a manufactured home community off North Virginia. No injuries and no damage to any structures.

Every day, firefighters risk their lives by exposing themselves to toxic chemicals, call after call. Certain areas of the body absorb carcinogens more easily, putting firefighters at higher risk of cancer. AB 1383, CPF's highest priority bill, helps confront these risks head-on. That’s why your support matters. Stand with us in Sacramento this June to show your support when it matters most. Visit cpfactivism.org to see how you can get involved.
