Off season may slow down the call volume, but it doesn’t slow down the work. Our crews dedicate time to maintenance, skills development, and continued training so we’re prepared to respond to any situation where we may be needed.
Crested Buttes Fire Protection District is proud to recognize the hard work, dedication, and bright futures of our community’s youth.
Some of our graduates were also members of the Explorers Program, where they learned, grew, and gained real world experience in public safety.
Congratulations to the Class of 2026, we’re cheering you on every step of the way. Wishing you success in your next chapter!
