Town of Hewitt Fire & Rescue
Town of Hewitt Fire & Rescue is an all-volunteer department serving the Town of Hewitt and our surrounding communities through mutual aid.
Fire Services
Fire Prevention & Education
The best way to fight fire is to prevent it from happening in the first place! Here are a few of the things we do to help educate and engage people in our coverage area:
Fire Inspections for local businesses
Home safety reviews
Fire education for local groups
Firefighting
We fight fires. If it's big or complicated, we call neighboring departments for mutual aid, and they do the same with us.
Medical Services
All of our medical responders are state-licensed Emergency Medical Responders. When you call 911, we are dispatched to provide care and stabilize patients until the ambulance arrives from Wausau.
Support Us
Donate
Interested in supporting our mission with a tax-deductible donation? The best way is to send a check to the Town of Hewitt, with "Fire Donation" in the memo line.
Volunteer
We are always looking for volunteers! Join as fire, med, or both. Training is sponsored by the state and/or department. If you have other skills that you are willing to contribute, let us know!
