General Guidelines

Tours and event participation are provided for residents of the City of DeLand or those that belong to an organization within the community.

Public Education requests, including fire station tours, require at least a two-week advance notice. This allows for the processing time required for your request. Today's fire department is a busy place even when not responding to emergency calls. The day-to-day schedule is very full with the various functions required of a modern fire department. Requests with less than a two-week notice are not able to be processed.
Although time has been scheduled for your tour or event, the engine and crew may be called to respond to an emergency. In the event the crew is called away, we will be happy to reschedule for another day.
The Department offers fire extinguisher training; however, the requesting party is required to provide the extinguishers (1 extinguisher per 3 individuals). The fire department will supply the burn pan and fuel.
Groups shall express their desired learning goal in the space provided on this form. These programs are provided for educational purposes and we are unable to accommodate any request for birthday parties or other non-educational events.
Station Tour Requests:
- Please remember that you are visiting an active, in-service fire station and will be briefed on a safe place to gather your group in the event that the engine is called out on an emergency.
- Groups shall consist of no more than 25 people, including necessary chaperones (1 adult for 4 children under the age of 12).
- During Station Visitations, there are no facilities available for you to serve food/cake to your group.
- Generally, the fire crew will provide a brief tour of the station, in addition to displaying the Engine and its equipment, followed by a question and answer period.
School Visit or Special Event Requests: At event participation, the Fire Apparatus must be located in a position that will facilitate a safe and expedient response in case the Apparatus is called to respond to an emergency.
