About about the SAGFC

Each year the Sacramento Fire Department puts forth the Sacramento Area Girls Fire Camp (SAGFC). Either in the month of September or October each year.

The youth get to learn from women in the fire service and get hands-on practice with basic firefighting and medical skills.

Campers in grades 9-12 participate in a 2-day camp, with a maximum of 50 campers.
