Who We Are:
The San Juan
Bautista Fire Department is a full-service
Emergency Services Organization that
provides fire suppression, emergency medical
services (basic life support), fire
prevention public education, and rescue and
extrication services to an area encompassing
approximately 70 square miles. The San Juan
Bautista Volunteer Fire Department was
formed in 1868 to help protect the citizens
from damaging and deadly fire. Just as the
times have changed, so has our mission.
Today, we provide the community with a full
range of quality emergency services. Your
fire department is the community's first
line of protection during times of emergency
crisis. We also have a Fire Explorer program
that gets the youth of our community (ages
15-18) involved with community service. |

In Late February
2005, San Juan Bautista took delivery of a
new 2005 Pierce Contender Custom Pumper.
This new, state of the art pumper has
seating for six (five with SCBA), air
conditioning, remote control back-up camera
to assist the driver, heated, remote
controlled mirrors, tilt control steering,
and air-ride seating for the driver. Pump
features include a Waterous 1250 gpm single
stage pump, a Foam Pro 1600 single agent
foam system with 20 gallon foam cell, and a
750 gallon poly water tank, with ladder
storage through the tank. Unit features an
Vulcan RF remote controlled deck gun which
can be operated from the pump panel or
remotely, all LED emergency lights, an
on-board 5000 watt Honda generator, and all
Gortite roll-up doors. The “growler” siren
on the front bumper was recovered and
refurbished from our old 1963 American
LaFrance pumper that is no longer with us. |
