I am honored to serve and protect this community. The West Columbia Fire Department operates on three guiding principles.
“We Serve the Community”
“We Serve Each Other”
“We Train to Serve”
First and foremost, our mission is to serve and protect the community. Our firefighters are highly trained and dedicated to responding quickly and efficiently to all emergencies. Emergencies can happen anytime, and we are prepared to respond and provide the necessary assistance.
Secondly, we serve each other within the department. We are a team and support each other in our work and personal lives. We strive to create a positive work environment that encourages growth, learning, and collaboration.
Finally, ongoing training and education is the key to providing excellent service to our community. Our firefighters are required to complete regular training and attend educational courses to keep up-to-date with the latest techniques and technologies in the industry.
The West Columbia Fire Department is committed to serving and protecting our community with the utmost dedication and professionalism. We are proud to serve you and look forward to continuing to build a strong relationship with the community.
Sincerely,
