Date: Saturday, June 14th, 2025
Location: The New Apex Firehall

We’re excited to host this year’s Wildfire Community Preparedness Day at our brand-new Firehall, where we’ll kick off the day with a special tradition: a ceremonial engine push into the bays to mark the firehall’s opening. 

This annual event is all about enhancing our community’s ability to withstand wildfires. The focus is on reducing available fuel to prevent fires from spreading, which is critical for those living in the wildland-urban interface. Beyond fuel reduction, the event is a chance to raise awareness about wildfire risks, the importance of FireSmart practices, and how we can all work together to protect our homes and our community.

Working together on preparedness doesn’t just make us safer; it strengthens the bonds that unite us—a key advantage before, during, and after any emergency.

Bring the whole family for a fun and informative day with hands-on activities, demonstrations, and opportunities to learn how you can make a difference. Let’s work together to protect our beautiful Apex community!

We are asking residents to step forward and join our team to ensure our services remain strong. Volunteer firefighters are the backbone of our community and help keep us safe in many other ways than just putting out fires! Applications are due by September 26, 2025. Click here to learn more.
