The Almelund Fire & Rescue Department serves 90 square miles and all or part of four townships (Amador, part of Sunrise, Chisago Lakes and Shafer).  They are a self-supporting service organization and a great benefit to our local area.

The department currently has well-trained firemen and first responders, all of whom are volunteers.  If you are interested in volunteering, please contact us.

They serve a population of 3,000 residents with medical and fire protection.  Also within the service area is Wild Mountain and Wild River State Park, both which are located in Amador Township.

• Wild River State Park includes 15 miles of the St. Croix National Scenic River which draws over 180,000 campers, hikers and boaters to this area each year.
• Wild Mountain Ski & Water Slide Recreational Area attracts over 220,000 visitors year around.
• Wild Mountain Winery is less than two miles northeast of Almelund.   They offer summer camping on their beautiful site. 

Continued development in our area for housing along with scenic and recreational attractions require that our department be current and up-to-date with equipment and training.

If you are interested in more information on this organization and the volunteer opportunities that are involved, please contact one of the township supervisors.
