The Lone Jack Fire Protection District is dedicated to the preservation of life and property, to respond to the needs of the community when asked to respond in emergency situations.

Office of the Fire Chief

Lone Jack Fire Protection District was established in 1975 as a tax-supported agency. Our history as a volunteer fire service dates back to 1954.

As the Fire Chief, I am very proud of our fire department's accomplishments and role we have in our community. All of our paid personnel are required to be certified Missouri Division of Fire Safety Firefighter I (minimum), possess a valid Missouri EMT-Basic or EMT-Paramedic license and hold a valid Missouri Driver's license. Their committment to the patrons of our community is what I am most proud of. It demonstrates a genuine desire to safegaurd lives, property and fellow firefighters with the assurance and knowledge of proper training.

The priority for the Lone Jack Fire Protection District is to safegaurd the lives first and property second. The very nature of the fire business makes it one of the most hazardous professions in the world today. Everytime an alarm sounds, firefighters put themselves in harm's way.

Sincerely,
David Kelsey
Fire Chief
