approximately ninety volunteers and ten paid
positions. Operating within the department are three
distinctly different divisions which include Fire, EMS,
and Dive. Each division is headed up by a Captain.
The Sitka Volunteer Fire Department covers one of
the largest City and Borough’s in the country (per
square mile) yet has no mutual aid, so the members
must be self reliant. The department handles
approximately thirteen hundred calls a year. This
department would not exist if it wasn’t for the
dedicated volunteers of Sitka.
