Become a Volunteer!

We are always on the lookout for individuals in thecommunity who are willing to serve on the Department. Whether that is being a firefighter, or a support person for traffic control on a motor vehicle accident, the more people there are to lend a helping hand the easier is is on everyone. It may be as simple as keeping the fire engines washed and waxed. Most of our volunteers have day jobs and can only respond in the evenings and on weekends. We are fortunate to have other Departments that are able to assist if the need be. If you would like to explore the possibility of becoming a volunteer, please contact us.

List all reasons why they should volunteer.
