Fire District 4 is proud to participate in the Chief for a Day Annual Event Sponsored by the Walla Walla Area Crime Watch.

Opal Sample, a Green Park Elementary student chosen through a nomination process, is this year’s Fire District 4 Chief for a Day.

Opal was sworn in yesterday, along with other Chiefs, Sheriffs, and Superintendents at Fort Walla Walla by Judge Kris Hedine.

Other activities included introduction at next week’s Sweets game on the 24th and National Night Out at Pioneer Park on August 4th.

You don’t need to be a superhero to serve your community—just someone willing to step up.

Volunteers are the heart of Fire District 4. They come from all walks of life—parents, students, retirees—and bring their time, heart, and dedication to the front lines. Whether it’s responding to fires, helping with medical calls, or supporting community events, volunteers make a real difference.

The cars are fast, the crowds are loud, and Fire District 4 is right there in the middle of it.

When Walla Walla shows up for race day, so do we — because our job isn't just responding to emergencies, it’s making sure this community can enjoy moments like this with confidence.

Our EMTs are on site, eyes on the track, ready to move the second they're needed. It’s one of the most exciting assignments of the year and a reminder of just how much variety comes with serving a community like ours.

Some very special visitors came by the station this week!

Mrs. Folz’s second-grade class from Davis Elementary stopped in for a tour, and we had the best time showing them around.

There’s nothing quite like seeing the trucks and gear through the eyes of a curious seven-year-old. Teaching our youngest community members about fire safety — and letting them know the people behind the badge are here to help — is one of the most rewarding parts of this job.

Thanks for visiting, friends! Come back anytime. Follow Fire District 4 for more from your local first responders.

Fire District #4 is responsible for staffing the ARFF truck 30 minutes prior to and 15 minutes after every scheduled commercial flight. Alaska Airlines operates daily flights to and from Seattle.

Initial training for ARFF certification is composed of a 40-hour CFR.139 training course. Annual continuing education and training are required to maintain certification. The completion of this contract with the Port is an efficient and cost-effective method to provide ARFF services while also enhancing the level of service provided to the citizens of Fire District #4.

They train to save lives — including each other’s.

When a firefighter goes down inside a structure fire, there is no time to figure it out in the moment. Every second counts and every move has to be intentional. This is the training that prepares Fire District 4 crews to locate a downed firefighter, remove gear, perform CPR, and deliver positive pressure oxygen.

The same people who show up for this community show up for one another, too.

Save this and follow to keep seeing the work that happens behind the scenes.

The best time to prepare for an emergency is before one happens.

1) Make sure your house numbers are large and visible from the street — when seconds matter, our crews need to find you fast.
2)Test your smoke detectors monthly and change the batteries once a year.
3) Know two ways out of every room in your home, and pick a meeting spot outside so everyone knows where to go. Practice it as a family so that when the stress is real, the plan is automatic.
4) Learn basic medical techniques like CPR, the recovery position, how to spot a stroke (Remember "FAST" - Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, Time to call 911.
5) None of these require advanced training and any one of them could save someone’s life before we ever arrive on scene.

You don't have to be a first responder to make a difference. You just have to be ready.

Here's a little behind-the-scenes look at one of our trainings.

Plus, learning to neatly wrap ratchet straps while not in use is a good life skill for everyone.

If you didn't know how to wrap ratches straps, share this with a friend.

No two days look the same here — and that’s exactly how we like it.

A year at Fire District 4 means starting January with a brand new fire academy class, watching recruits grow from their first day at the drill tower all the way to graduation in the Spring.

It means standing by at the drag races and the rodeos, teaching kids in local elementary schools how to stay safe, and providing fire protection for every commercial flight at Walla Walla Regional Airport.

It means hydrant testing, wildland training, community outreach, and showing up for this town in more ways than most people ever see.

We don't just respond to emergencies — we are woven into the fabric of this community every single month of the year.

Follow along to see more of what your Walla Walla first responders are up to.

Eight hours in the arena…just in case. We sent two of our Firefighter/EMTs to volunteer at the Washington State High School Rodeo Association State Finals.

We have a presence at many community events simply to ensure it all goes smoothly, and most of the time, people don’t even know we’re there. Whether it’s the drag races, the fair, Crashfest, or the rodeo, our team is there so that this community can cheer, compete, and celebrate without worry.

Share this with someone who loves this community as much as we do.
