🎓🐾 Congratulations to all the Oelwein High School Class of 2026 seniors! 🐾🎓

The Oelwein Fire Department would like to wish each and every graduate the very best as you turn the page to your next chapter. Whether your future holds college, the workforce, the military, trade school, or adventures still undecided — we’re proud of everything you’ve accomplished.

Keep chasing your goals, supporting your community, and making Oelwein proud. Remember: no matter where life takes you, you’ll always have a hometown cheering you on.

May 10th through May 16, 2026, is National Police Week and we want to especially recognize and thank the men and women of the Oelwein Police Department, Iowa State Patrol, and Fayette County Sheriff's Office.

Whether it’s assisting on emergency scenes, responding to difficult calls, helping keep our community safe, or answering the radio at 2am when we say “you might want to start our way…” — your dedication and professionalism never go unnoticed.
We appreciate the teamwork, sacrifice, and commitment each of you bring every single day. The job isn’t easy, but we’re grateful to work alongside people who care so deeply about the communities they serve.

And while we may occasionally argue over who makes the coffee stronger or who gets blamed for eating the last donut… we know we can always count on each other when it matters most.

From all of us her at the Oelwein Fire Department — thank you for always having our backs.
