2025 Kids Academy
The 2025 Kids Academy is now full.
If you would like a link to put your name on our waitlist, please email kidsacademy@brightonfire.org and let us know you are interested in being on the waitlist for the 2025 academy. If you remain on the waitlist and do not get a spot this year, you get to register first for the next academy.
Get a glimpse of what life as a firefighter is like at the Brighton Fire Kids Academy! Kids 8-11 years old are invited to attend our kids academy.
Kids will learn about fire safety, first aid, bike safety and much more, while spending time with firefighters and learning what life is like at the firehouse. The cost is $55. Registration is on a first come, first serve basis.
(Please note that if your child has already attended kids academy, they can not attend again, as space is limited and we need to allow for anyone who has not done the academy previously)
All registrations must be done by a legal parent or guardian, as you have to sign the waiver when registering.
To register please send an email with your name, your child’s name, age and date of birth to kidsacademy@brightonfire.org. Once that email is received by us, you will receive an email with a one time use link to fill out the registration form and pay the fee. This is the only way to register for kids academy.
