SERVE WITH PRIDE
Ste Gen FD is looking for people who are interested in becoming volunteer members. For a member’s time and commitment we provide equipment and training in a motivating real world environment in order for you to gain an understanding, competence and receive certifications in firefighting. We accept applications throughout the year and bring new members at various times.
A big thanks to the Ste. Genevieve Elementary 1st graders for coming out to the firehouse today to talk fire prevention and safety! We were thrilled to be a part of their Safety Week activities!
We are always trying to improve our service to the community. Training is a big part of our being prepared when you need us. We have volunteers willing to take their days off of their fulltime jobs to make themselves better prepared. As the Chief I am extremely proud of the special skills and dedication of each one of our members!
Yesterday afternoon SGFD assisted Zell Volunteer Fire Department with a first alarm structure fire. On arrival crews had heavy fire out the windows. With great team work, the fire was quickly extinguished and crews returned in under an hour.
In an emergency seconds and minutes can mean the difference between life and death. Have you ever wondered “If there was an emergency here could the fire truck or ambulance get to me”? Especially for our rural tag holders here is something to think about.![]()

Last week members of SGFD traveled to Indianapolis to attend the annual FDIC (fire department instructors conference) expo. While there we were able to research new training techniques, equipment and technologies to better serve our community.![]()
