Who We Are

What We Do

Becoming a volunteer firefighter is one of the more rewarding jobs one could ever have. As volunteers we rush away from our family, friends, and careers to help our neighbors when they are in need. Volunteer firefighters respond to all types of emergency calls ranging from residential & commercial fire alarm, car accidents, boat and water rescues, request for medical assistance, and house fires. Our jobs as volunteers doesn't just end there, we also assist in educating the public in fire safety and first responder medical aid. We also conduct fundraisers to help community charity and civic groups within our town. if you think you can fill these rolls, we would love to hear from you!
