Welcome to the Jewett Volunteer Fire Department Website!
Jewett Volunteer Fire Department is a 100% volunteer department which provides Fire Protection and Rescue services to the citizens of Jewett and surrounding area. Additionally, we provide mutual aid services to our neighbors in Leon County.
Our department consists of approximately 20 members and 6 units. Five (5) members serve as officers which are elected by the membership for 1 year terms.
In addition to the standard equipment required by NFPA, we have foam firefighting capabilities and extrication capabilities with our Holmatro extrication equipment.
We actively participate in annual training sessions at TEEX Annual Municipal Fire School, Chalk Bluff Extrication School, and other outside training programs.
We are proud to be members of the Leon County ESD, Leon/Madison County Firefighters Association, and the State Fireman's & Fire Marshals' Association of Texas.
