ABOUT MID-COUNTY FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT

Greetings from Chief Frandsen

Welcome to the Mid-County Fire Protection District website. Our staff has worked diligently preparing this site, and we are sure you will find it both informative and educational. 

Formed in 1986, the Mid-County Fire Protection District is located in central Missouri in the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks. This district encompasses 220 square miles in central Camden County. Our full service/multi-discipline department responds to more than 1,100 calls annually, including structural and wildland fire suppression, vehicle and technical rescue, marine firefighting and rescue, dive/water recoveries, emergency medical services, code enforcement, fire prevention/public education, along with a host of other activities and services. Our six fire stations and two fireboat docks house the following equipment: 4 engines, 6 tankers, a rescue engine, 7 brush/EMS trucks, a 75' ladder truck, a fuel/utility truck, a dive/water rescue truck and 3 staff vehicles. Forty volunteer firefighters, 6 paid firefighters, an administrative assistant, a Fire Marshal and a Fire Chief make up our staff. The department operates 4 divisions that include: Training, Operations, Fire Prevention and Support Services.

Our motivated, dedicated and educated members provide a premium level of service to the citizens and visitors of our district. We provide around-the-clock coverage from our headquarter station and volunteer coverage from our outlying stations. 

If you have any questions about any fire district operation, or have any suggestions on how we may improve any of our programs or services, please do not hesitate to contact our office. We are constantly looking for individuals who are willing to challenge themselves and become a part of our organization.  If you would like to get information about becoming a member of our team, please call or stop by our office.
