Bend Fire & Rescue has kicked off Camp Fire Axe 2023! This camp is an exciting introduction into a Fire/EMS career at Bend Fire. Students from 16-18 years old will experience 4 days of what a traditional fire academy is like.

We hope to ignite inspiring career possibilities and forever friendships.
