Your safety is our purpose.

Your Castle Rock firefighters put their lives on the line each time they leave their homes and report for duty for one cause – your safety. Every one of Castle Rock’s firefighters has taken an oath to protect our neighbors, even if it means going into harm’s way. We take that oath seriously and work every day to provide you with excellence in public safety.

We’re proud to have the support of the residents we’re sworn to protect and strive to bolster that relationship each and every day. Our association isn’t just proud of the work our firefighters do during their shifts, we’re grateful for the partnership we’ve formed with our wonderful community and look forward to seeing that relationship grow.

Our Initiatives

Castle Rock’s brave firefighters put their lives on the line every day they show up to their fire stations with a singular mission: your safety.

We continue to put more and more responsibilities on our plate because you deserve nothing less than excellence in public safety.
