Fire Station Tours
Station tours provide visitors the opportunity to view equipment, see our "home away from home", talk to firefighters and learn about fire safety. Please remember that fire stations have dangerous equipment and, of course, emergency vehicles.
If you are interested in visiting, make sure you have enough chaperons and that you discuss with your children the importance of following the firefighters' instructions. Please ensure that students understand that in the case of an emergency call, firefighters will have to leave the station even if a tour is in progress.
Tours can be arranged by making a request online, calling your local fire station direct, or by calling Fire Administration at 703-228-3362. Find your local station
