Firefighter Recruiting

Becoming a firefighter is one of the most challenging, fast-paced and rewarding professions available. Firefighting creates a sense of commitment and dedication to protecting local residents and the larger community.


Benefits of Being a Firefighter

Being a firefighter requires you to dedicate time to responding to emergency calls and to commit to many hours of training. There are many benefits, including:

  • Transferable training
  • Competitive honorarium and insurance coverage
  • Growth opportunities
  • Lifelong friendships
  • Participation in community events

We are proud of our firefighters and all the work they do in the community.
