Department careers page ↗Campbell County Fire Department protects the City of Gillette, the Town of Wright, and the unincorporated reaches of Campbell County in northeastern Wyoming. It is a combination department staffed by full-time and part-time firefighters supported by administrative staff, operating out of ten structural fire stations plus a training center, a fleet maintenance facility, and rural wildland support stations.
The department serves roughly 46,000 residents spread across about 4,803 square miles, a mix of a growing energy-industry city and sprawling rural rangeland that demands both structural and wildland capability.
Firefighting in Gillette traces back to 1906, but today's countywide organization was formed in 1975 when a Joint Powers Fire Board merged the separate city and county departments. The training center is named for firefighter Alan Mickelson, who died in the line of duty in 1989.
Today the department runs 24/7, answers more than 2,000 emergency calls annually, and maintains a large fleet of apparatus reflecting its dual urban and wildland mission.
