Fire Department was born. In 1955 a full time Chief was hired and in 1965 the
station had manning 24 hours a day. With EMS service in the 1970’s saw
Paramedics and with implementation of 911 came an increased call volume. Four personnel staff the station today around the clock manning nine apparatus. Cross trained as firefighters and EMS providers the men and women of the
department proudly serve the residents of Champion. The call volume in 1929 was 15 and in 2021 the department handled 2,367

Today, our crews had a great time visiting the preschoolers at Champion Local Schools! 🚒🚑
​We joined forces with our TCSO School Resource Officer to talk with the kids about fire safety, emergency preparedness, and when to call for help. The highlight of the day was giving the students a hands-on tour of our fire truck and ambulance!
​A big thank you to Champion Local Schools for inviting us out. We loved meeting our future firefighters and safety heroes! 🌟
