Station 23 was deeded to the district in 1979 and covers Rosario, the Highlands, Palisades, and the majority of Moran State Park.

Did you know?

The first new apparatus ever purchased by the district; a 1966 Ford front-mount, 1000-gallon fire engine; is still on Orcas Island. The Orcas Island Volunteer Firefighter Association purchased the engine from the district for one dollar. While no longer in service, the engine can be seen during parades and other community events. When not on display, it resides at station 26 in Orcas.
