Monkey Island Fire Department is here to serve you and the Grand Lake area called Monkey Island. Our Fire Chief Carl Tesreau is dedicated to serving our community & helping protect us from all sorts of disasters from structural fires, grass fires and more.

We hope you never need to call us in our official capacity but in case you do, isn't it good to know that Carl, Reggie and the nineteen volunteer fire-fighters are ready and capable of handling most any emergency.

Feel free to call or email us if you have any questions, concerns and/or ideas. We are here to serve YOU.

About Us

We are a local fire department serving Monkey Island and it's environs. With two full-time and nineteen volunteer firefighters we are confident we can handle any situation that might arise.We were made into a tax-based organization in 2004 and we support (and have the support of) our local community. More than just a fire department, we live with, dine with and play with the citizens of our community. When we respond to an emergency it's not just a house fire, we're responding to a hazardous situation at the house (or business) of a friend and/or neighbor.
