Our Fire PALS program focuses on fire and life safety education for preschool age children through third graders. We send our qualified educators to elementary schools within the city limits to provide this awareness and education. Topics covered include firefighter and emergency awareness, life saving techniques such as, stop, drop and roll, as well as general household, kitchen, water and fire safety information.

To request a visit from our fire personnel please submit an event request form.

Buckeye Fire-Medical-Rescue Department (BFMRD) has taken on the task of reducing the life safety risks and monetary losses associated with juveniles involved in fire play. BFMRD has adopted a multi-level approach to the education and treatment of identified juveniles involved in fire setting behaviors. The program is adaptable for pre-school ages through teens. Participation in the program is voluntary except for those referred by juvenile authorities. The program consists of five parts, each phase has a unique role in the process, yet all are interconnected. The five parts are: identification, education, assessment, referral and follow-up. These services are offered free of charge to the residents of Buckeye.
