Adopt a hydrant

Adopting a hydrant can save lives! Girdwood Fire and Rescue encourages residents to adopt a hydrant near their home or business and keep it clear of snow, debris, tall grass, and weeds. This helps first responders access it quickly in an emergency -because faster access means faster response times.
