The Big Pine Fire Protection District proudly invites our community, neighboring agencies, family, friends, and supporters to join us as we celebrate the addition of our new Type 3 Wildland Fire Engine to our fleet. Wednesday, July 22, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. Big Pine Fire Protection District 181 N. Main Street, Big Pine, CA   The Push-In Ceremony is a time-honored fire service tradition that dates back to the days of horse-drawn fire apparatus. After returning from a call, firefighters would manually push the engine back into the station because the horses could not back the apparatus into the bay. Today, this tradition symbolizes unity, teamwork, and the beginning of a new chapter as an apparatus is officially placed into service.   This new Type 3 fire engine represents the continued commitment of the Big Pine Fire Protection District to protecting the lives, property of our community. It enhances our ability to respond to wildland fires, structure fires, medical emergencies, and mutual a...
