Established in 1873, the Crown Point Fire-Rescue department consists of 20 full-time employees and 50 volunteer firefighters. The Fire-Rescue department currently operates 3 Engine companies, a 102 foot aerial tower, 2 Rescue trucks, 2 Wildland fire trucks, 3 Advanced Life Support Ambulances, a 2800 gallon tanker, 35 foot special operations trailer, water/dive rescue truck, and several support and command vehicles.

We serve the citizens in Crown Point and parts of Center Township. The ambulance department and its personnel are merged with the Fire Department as one. We have had personnel cross trained and certified as firefighter/paramedics.

Please help us to help you by making sure that your house is clearly identified. The house numbers need to be a minimum of three (3") inches in height and in a color that contrasts with the background. It is important that the house numbers are clearly visible from the road. This will make your property easier to identify and allow our department to render aid to you in a more efficient manner. Reflective address marker signs available here for only $15!

Fire Chief Gary Huys reminds you that the volunteer firefighters responding to an emergency display blue flashing or revolving lights. Please pull to the right and allow fire trucks and volunteer firefighters to pass. The emergency that they are responding to may be at your home.

The Crown Point Fire Rescue department offers tours of our station to groups and individuals. Bring the kids! Our on duty personnel are happy to show them around. Large groups are asked to call our office to schedule a convenient time. You may reach us at 911 for emergencies or at 662-3248 for non-emergency. You can also send us an email.
