Demarest Fire Department

Huge shout out to Paul’s House of Fish for taking care of the department with an amazing dinner. The boys will definitely be coming back for a second round!

During Tuesday nights storm a Swift Water Task Force was requested into the City of Englewood to assist with multiple water rescues and emergencies due to the flooding throughout the City. Five of our Techs along with 24-High Water responded and operated for about 4 hours before returning to the Valley.

Welcome to the Family!

This morning members from the PD and FD participated in the Demarest 5K followed by the Fun Run with kids from County Road School and Luther Lee Emerson School. Thanks to all who came out to support the runners.
