Public Contact Information

Nestled in the heart of Central Oregon, the Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire District provides fire protection and emergency services to the communities of Sisters, Camp Sherman, and the surrounding area. Covering 240 square miles in the Deschutes National Forest, this region faces a significant wildfire risk during the hot, dry summer months.

To meet these challenges, the District relies on an exceptional team of dedicated volunteers and professionals. With two stations strategically located in Sisters and Camp Sherman, firefighters can rapidly respond to calls day and night. The District’s 45 volunteers and 5 career staff undergo rigorous training to stay prepared for medical emergencies, structure fires, wildland fires, rescues, and other response needs.
