Eastsound Station Meeting Room

The headquarters station has a large meeting room for Fire District training, events and meetings which is also available for non-profit, governmental and community groups by reservation. This meeting room has an occupancy maximum of 88 and can be divided into 2 separate rooms.

The Orcas Island Fire & Rescue provides regular business hours as well as 24-hour service to our community. The meeting room is located in our main fire station and can be a very busy place. The office staff is in-service as emergency responders and are busy with both work duties and emergencies so please provide for your own administrative needs prior to your meeting or event.

We invite public use of the meeting room, but the remainder of the building is not available for public use. We are no longer scheduling our small conference room for public meetings.
