Today, we're recognizing some of our own: Goodyear Fire members who have served in the U.S. military. Thank you for your service. To every veteran in our community and beyond, and everyone still serving, thank you. Happy Veterans Day!
With Veterans Day approaching, our Goodyear Fire Honor Guard joined Public Works to recognize its veteran employees. Members posted the colors, presented a folded flag at the Missing Man Table and honored each veteran with a pin. Thank you for your service!
Another fire station is on the way! Construction is underway on Goodyear Fire Station 189 near Indian School Road and Citrus Road. As our city grows, this new station will help us expand our coverage and better serve the Goodyear community.
Now that's a throwback! Here's a close-up of our 1942 Chevrolet pumper. At 84 years old, this old red truck has some pretty cool details. Thought we'd share a little piece of Goodyear Fire history!
A few photos from Abrazo West Safety Fest 2026! Our crews joined other local agencies and organizations for a day of safety demonstrations, including a vehicle extrication demonstration by Goodyear Fire. Thanks to everyone who came out and to Abrazo West Campus for having us!
Before hauling equipment, check more than the straps. Our crews responded to an I-10 collision after an excavator struck an overpass and came off its trailer. Know your total load height, check your route for clearance and secure your equipment every trip.
We are saddened to share that retired Goodyear Fire Battalion Chief Shiple passed away over the weekend.
Our thoughts and condolences are with his family, friends, and all those who knew him during this difficult time.
Rest in peace, Chief.
Anyone else hearing that? Halloween is barely over, and Mariah is already warming up! π
Alright, Goodyear, settle this for us. Christmas decorations now, or wait until after Thanksgiving? We're not judging... much.
Well, look who we got together for a picture!
Public Educator Tanja and her son, Firefighter Kester, along with Captain Clark and his nephew, Firefighter Moseler.
Not every day you get two family connections in one photo!

Here's to the long shifts, the training, the hard work, and the laughs along the way. To the mothers, fathers, partners, siblings, sons, daughters, and friends behind the gear. To firefighters everywhere, this one's for you!
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Take time to learn your personal risk factors, pay attention to changes and talk with your healthcare provider about when screening is right for you. We're thinking of everyone affected by breast cancer.
Every two years, our EMTs and paramedics take part in EMS refresher training to review medical skills, practice techniques and stay current with changes in emergency medicine. Here's a look at some of that training.
HM 181 made it to the finish line! Our HazMat crew was at NASCAR this past weekend, and when people got the chance to sign the finish line, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to add HM 181. Another successful race weekend!
Chirping Smoke Alarm? Check the Date! A chirping alarm is a good reminder to check the manufacture date 10 years old or older, replace the entire unit! Need help installing, contact a local handyman or electrician. We do not offer this service.

6.4 miles of fire hose! That's 33,600 feet tested this year across our eight fire stations and backup supply. Each year, our hose is inspected and pressure tested. Our ladders are tested annually, too, including how they flex under weight.
Last week, we welcomed our neighbors to Station 183 for Dinner with the Fire Chief. Guests enjoyed dinner, heard department updates, asked questions and toured the station.
Thanks to Mission BBQ for catering and to everyone who joined us!
