Becoming a firefighter isn't just about riding in a fire truck and blowing the siren.  It's about community pride and image.  It's about knowing you have done your best to assist a neighbor in a time of need.  It takes someone with courage, devotion, and dedication.  It takes someone who isn't afraid of hard work and is willing to accept the challenge of a difficult job. 

It takes Someone who considers respect and appreciation reward enough.  It takes someone who is just glad to help.  As a firefighter, you will respond to calls for various types of assistance.  In addition, you will be required to attend training and maintenance sessions as well as support the departments fundraising and fire prevention efforts. 

  For those aged 16-17 we offer a  Jr. firefighter program.

What is a Jr. firefighter?

Junior firefighters attend regular department meetings, on Monday nights of each month, and participate in various learning activities designed to prepare them for the Firefighter I class.  Junior Fire Fighters are NOT  allowed to participate in live fire situations. Junior Fire Fighters interested in becoming active department volunteers may reapply for full membership when they turn 18.
