The Fire Museum is open to public viewing:
Every second Saturday of the month
1 - 4 pm
Admission is Free
985 Orchid Road, Camano Island
The museum is a gritty, honest tribute to generations of dedication, bravery, and volunteer spirit. Whether you are a lifelong resident, tourist, first responder, or a youth seeking wisdom come experience the real-world history and proud legacy of the men and women that kept Camano Island safe.
The Camano Island Archive at the Schousehool preserves history by digitizing photographs, letters, and documents. Using a post-custodial model, they scan and return original heirlooms to owners, saving space while safeguarding history.

The archive is open the second Saturday of every month from 1:00 to 4:00 PM, welcoming everyone to drop by and get acquainted. This is the perfect window to conduct local research, bring in historical items for donation, or get hands-on as a volunteer.
Whether you want to explore the island's past or help scan and organize new arrivals, stop in to see how we are keeping Camano’s history alive.
Please consider us a great solution for your goals to give back.
