Do you have what it takes to answer the call?
Would you like to learn new skills, help your community when needed most, and create life long bonds between first responders.
If so, the Cortes Island Fire Department will be recruiting next month and would welcome your attendance.
Come to the Mansons Landing Fire Station (Hall #1) on Monday, February 10th at 7pm for a 1 hr orientation. Our boot camp training schedule will be determined at that time.

Due to COVID 19 protocols, we will be accepting a maximum of 10 people this year in order to maintain a safe working environment.

Our department was called into action again on June 12th at 0512hrs to a structure/wild land fire. Thanks to the professional effort from our volunteers, we were able to quickly contain the blaze through a parallel flanking attack. The original caller sent us this photo of the fire at the time it was discovered.

Cortes Firefighter Attends Funeral for Fallen Police Officer

Comments are off

The Cortes Fire Department was proud to have one of our members attend a somber procession in the Central Valley of California, on Friday as a tribute to Corporal Ronil Singh, who was killed in the line of duty as he made a suspected DUI stop in Newman, south of Modesto.

He recounts :

“This was one of those times that I had a very strong feeling that I needed to go and pay my respects. Perhaps it was the picture taken a few hours before he died. You know the one, the Christmas picture with his wife and young son and K9 partner.

I flew into Sacramento Airport Friday afternoon and took a rental car and drove to Modesto. I arrived at 0830hrs. The service was scheduled to start at 1000hrs.
There was seating for 2,800 at the main venue and two overflow buildings. The service was sad, funny and moving. Corporal Singh’s large family was there. About 3,000 uniformed personnel attended. and another 1000 members of the public. After the service, there was a procession with over 500 police vehicles through town. Many people stood in the rain to honour Corporal Singh. Some had signs and flags. I was glad to be able to attend and show support to the family and law enforcement community.”
