Bomberos
For years the Mulegé Rotary Club and local Bomberos (fire department) have had a strong partnership. Mulegé Rotary Club is a major fiscal partner of the Bomberos, providing a portion of the funding necessary for their operations annually. The Bomberos ensure the security and the safety of the community with fire and emergency medical personnel and equipment.
The Bomberos participate in Rotary events by assisting in grounds preparation, providing emergency services personnel onsite, and providing parking support.
Over the years the Mulegé Rotary Club in partnership with Rotary clubs and other organizations from the United States have been able to assist in getting equipment donated to our local Bomberos to replace aging and obsolete equipment. In February 2020, through two Sacramento area clubs, Clarksburg & Rio Vista Rotary, we were able to replace the towns 1974 fire truck with the much newer 1991 truck. In addition, these clubs and other organizations such as Baja Bridges provided other much needed equipment and training to the Mulegé Bomberos and a number of other towns in Baja. We are continuously looking for alliances to make projects like this possible
