EMERGENCY RESPONSE
Our members respond to any type of emergency at all times of the day and night year round. When you see our units leaving the Fire Station, or on the roadway, they are en route to any specified emergency scene. Our members constantly sacrifice time away from family, work, weekends, family functions, holidays, birthdays, anniversaries and almost every other type of event you can think of to go help people in need. They do this for the care of the people that live and travel through this great community.
TRAINING
Training is a huge part of what we do in the Fire / Rescue Service. Our firefighters average around 4000+ hours in a calendar year spread over 20-24 volunteer members.
Online courses, weekly training nights, sponsored courses and client hosted courses at other fire departments have given our members all the tools needed to be better prepared for the job.
We strive to achieve government certification in the NFPA 1001 level 1 & level 2, along with NFPA 472 awareness and operations for all members.
Medical first response training is also mandatory for all members with a number of members achieving EMR / EMT / PCP level training.
