About Us
Founded in 1947 as Stewart Lennox Rural Fire Protection District by a group of community members concerned with fire danger. The community purchased one used fire truck and The District has grown from there.
Currently Klamath County Fire District #4 is still located at 4041 Balsam Drive. Over the years we have grown into an All Risk, All Hazards fire department. We respond to the same calls and receive the same training as big city agencies just on a smaller scale.
We run on average approximately 700 calls for service per year, 80% of which are medical in nature.
Get To Know KCFD#4
KCFD#4 is composed of 1 Fire Chief, 1 Captain, 1 Lieutenant and on average 20 Volunteers.
