About Oregon Fire Service Museum
Oregon Fire Service Museum is a non-governmental 501(c)3 not-for-profit all-volunteer organization made up of a diverse group of men and women, including both active and retired fire service personnel, fire history enthusiasts, general historians, and people who just like fire trucks. We participate in community safety fairs, antique fire apparatus displays, and other events. The organization is governed by an elected board of four officers and seven directors with a curator appointed to the position.

Oregon Fire Service Museum, Memorial & Learning Center was organized in 1993. For a time the museum occupied space in a building used by the Oregon Office of State Fire Marshal, but when that office needed to expand, OFSM began efforts to develop its own museum facility. Now Oregon Fire Service Museum is constructing a significant facility at Powerland Heritage Park in Brooks, Oregon, just off I-5 near Salem.

While the idea for a museum began with a handful of people decades ago, currently numerous fire departments throughout Oregon maintain departmental memberships, and a growing number of individuals and families are sustaining members of Oregon Fire Service Museum.
