Marion Fire Department will occasionally be asked to attend a community gathering to provide safety discussions and to display a truck. 

 Before requesting a truck visit, please keep in mind:

• Priority is given to educational organizations like schools, daycare centers and community/non-profit groups providing a service or event that aligns with the the department's fire safety and health goals. 
• Fire department personnel and apparatuses do not make appearances at private parties or for-profit functions (e.g. grand opening event for a new business, birthday parties, etc.).
• No request for programs and events on Sundays or holidays, please. 
• The department works very hard to accommodate every request it receives, however due to limited resources, training demands and a high volume of emergency response calls handled by the department mean we cannot accommodate all requests.

To arrange a truck visit 319-377-8237 or email the Fire Department. The following information is helpful: 

• Organization name/event 
• Date and time of the visit
• Contact person name and phone number
• Location of event
• Number of children and/or adults expected, if known
• Ages of children, if known
