As of 8:00 AM this morning, South Whatcom Fire Authority’s Sudden Valley station is fully operational!📢 🚒 EXCITING NEWS! SUDDEN VALLEY FIRE STATION NOW OPEN
Effective 8:00 AM this morning, we are now fully operational at Station 22 in Sudden Valley.
After over two years of being closed, due to an initial pipe break and significant water damage, and then a planned renovation project, we are happy to report we are back to being staffed 24/7.
We thank the community for their patience and continuous support through this frustratingly long process.
We will be announcing an Open House date very soon once we get situated. ... See MoreSee Less
Thank you to the Birch Bay Chamber of Commerce for standing with North Whatcom Fire & Rescue. 🚒 Our members serve this community every day, and support like yours helps make sure they have the people, equipment, and facilities to keep doing it. Ballots are due August 4th! Please take a moment to learn about Proposition 2026-03. ❤️🚒 The Birch Bay Chamber of Commerce is proud to support Proposition 2026-03 for North Whatcom Fire and Rescue - WCFD 21 that appears on the August 4th Primary Election Ballot.
Our community depends on North Whatcom Fire & North Whatcom Fire and Rescue - WCFD 21 every day, for emergency medical response, fire protection, rescue services, and community safety. Over the past two decades, emergency calls have increased significantly while the district's voter-approved fire levy has declined due to state levy limitations.
According to the district, the levy restoration would help maintain emergency response, hire and retain firefighters, replace aging equipment, and invest in facilities needed to serve our growing community.
There are several resources that we will link in the comments below, and we encourage you to learn more about this important measure. Our firefighters and first responders are there for us every day. We encourage our community to be informed and participate in this important local election. 🚒❤️
Clock in with Mayor Kim Lund and the crew of the Salish Star to see how our members extend firefighting and emergency services beyond the land and into Bellingham Bay.
The Salish Star runs out of Squalicum Harbor and puts our members on vessel fires, water rescues, and medical calls that can't be reached from shore. It's a piece of the job most people never see.
Thanks to Mayor Lund for taking the helm and taking the time to learn what our crews do on the water! ... See MoreSee Less
And the ribs have it - KAFE 104.1 judged the cookoff and named North Whatcom Fire and Rescue ribs the best on the block. 🏆
What a turnout for the Battle of the Badges BBQ! Huge thanks to everyone who came out Saturday to Birch Bay Waterslides. You brought the appetites, the kids, the questions, and the good energy that made the day.
Thank you to the crews from Whatcom County Fire District 21 and the deputies from the Whatcom County Sheriff's Office for manning the grills, and to everyone who helped with the games, raffles, and apparatus tours. Special thanks to Alex Georgulas and Jerylin Klix for making it all come together.
Whatcom County Sheriff's Office: We'll keep the grills warm for a rematch. 😉
🚒 “Those 17 minutes waiting for help seemed like forever.”
That’s Kelly, describing the wait after calling 911 for her husband, James.
As Semiahmoo grows, so does the demand on emergency medical services. This isn’t about statistics. It’s about real people, real emergencies, and the families who depend on first responders when they need help most. ... See MoreSee Less
