RFFD Announces Promotion of Fire Captain Brandon Fraser Dickinson to Deputy Fire Chief of the Rocky Ford Fire Department!

Brandon will continue his duties as A-Shift supervisor while serving in his role as Deputy Fire Chief.

Brandon was raised in Rocky Ford, and this community has been his home his whole life. He began his fire service career as a volunteer in 2010 with the Cheraw Volunteer Fire Department, then joined Rocky Ford Fire Department in 2014, and in 2021 he became a full-time member of our department. In that time, he has grown into one of our most valued and trusted leaders that has served as a Volunteer Lieutenant, and Fire Captain.

Brandon’s professional background and training reflect his commitment to our profession. He holds IFSTA Fire Safety Officer certification, Company Officer, Hazmat Operations, Firefighter I, AHA BLS Instructor, NREMT-B certifications, and he recently completed his Wildland Fire Instructor and Proctor certification. He is now working toward IFSTA Fire Instructor I. As one our Fire Prevention Educators, he has taken that knowledge into our schools and neighborhoods and helped educate our children to keep our community safer.

Brandon is a devoted husband and the father of three beautiful girls. He loves farming, hunting, and time with his family, and he has earned the deepest respect of our entire agricultural and city community. Those who know him know he leads with passion, with humility, and puts service above self, and that is the example he sets for this department every day.

Deputy Chief Dickinson will bring a high level of knowledge, skill, and ability to this role. I am confident he will serve our firefighters and the people of Rocky Ford with the same dedication he has shown throughout his career. 

I encourage everyone in joining me on congratulating Chief Dickinson on his new role. You have earned this Brandon. I am excited to see you lead this department forward into the future and striving to improve the quality of life within our community. We will be having a pinning ceremony TBD.
