Fire Station Tours: Children of all ages may visit the station of their choice and receive a demonstration of firefighter gear, a tour of the station, and fire safety tips. Tours may be scheduled between the hours of 9:00am and 7:00pm any day of the week. Tours are dependent upon emergency calls received by station personnel.

The mission of Gwinnett Fire and Emergency Services is to save lives and protect property.  Outside of putting out fires and responding to medical calls, the department provides community education that helps achieve this goal.  To schedule an education program, please e-mail fireprograms@gwinnettcounty.com.
