Fire Extinguisher Classes
The Denton Fire Department utilizes a portable fire extinguisher training aid that replicates a small fire. This can be brought to any business to teach employees how to properly use a fire extinguisher.
Fill out the Special Event Request Form and submit it to our offices to schedule this free class.
Juvenile Programs
If you would like for firefighters to come to your day care, church, school or similar business to share a fire safety message with children or give a tour of a fire engine, submit the Special Event Request Form to our offices at least a month prior to the date of the event.
Clowns on Fire
The Denton Fire Department's clown troop schedules numerous appearances each year. They present skits on safety topics to large audiences in the Schools.
For more information via the Clowns on Fire page.
Fire Station Tours
Residents are always welcome to visit the fire stations. However, due to the firefighters' hectic schedule with both planned and unplanned events, it is strongly recommended that you schedule a station tour by filling out the Special Event Request Form.
Explorers Program
The Fire Explorer Program is on hiatus. Check back here for updates.
The Fire Explorer program is designed for youth ages 14 to 19 who live in Denton County and are interested in learning about a career in the fire service. It gives them a firsthand experience in what it mentally and physically takes to be a professional firefighter. Participants will receive fire service training under supervision of trained firefighters. The program will give them beneficial experience, discipline, and knowledge that can apply to any career field.
