Kemah Fire Department will provide professional quality fire and rescue services to its community. Through our dedication, training, and motivation to do our best we will operate efficiently, ethically and successfully, while supporting the people and communities we serve.

Members will use their own judgment, collect their total resources, including their training and overall experience, bearing in mind all of the departments guidelines, and apply them collectively to the existing circumstances.
