BECOME A PART OF THE TRADITION
Today, over 70% of firefighters in America are volunteers, carrying on the noble tradition that was started by our forefathers. It was in 1736 that Benjamin Franklin started the Union Fire Company. This is considered by many to be the start of the modern volunteer fire service in America.
BECOME PART OF THE EXCITMENT
Being a firefighter is exciting! You’re doing something that’s serving your community. It’s got moments of enormous excitement, and the sense of camaraderie with your colleagues can be unique.
