About Camp Phoenix

Camp Phoenix is a free, immersive day camp for those who identify as young women ages 14-18 years old who are interested in learning more about a career in firefighting. Our mission is simple; to discover, educate and empower the next generation of future female fire professionals. 

Camp Phoenix simulates real-life scenarios in all areas of fire prevention and suppression including:

  • Search and rescue
  • Forcible entry
  • Auto extrication
  • Basic first aid and more.

Campers will receive empowering interactions from people in all areas of the fire service, not just firefighting, through learning lunches which will welcome a new guest speaker every day.

This year's camp will run Wednesday, July 23 to Sunday, July 27, 2025.
