The Town of Algoma Fire Department currently has 19 firefighters, 9 firefighter/EMRs , and 3 EMRs who respond to both emergency and non-emergency calls.
Along with providing fire protection and emergency medical services within the municipal boundary of the town, the fire department has mutual aid agreements with neighboring communities, including the Omro-Rushford Fire Department and provides staffing for the City of Oshkosh during large fires within the city. These agreements are part of MABAS (Mutual Aid Box Alarm System).
