Discount Club Update
Ross Township has been blessed with a 100% volunteer fire
service for many years. The desire of this committee, business
owners and every tax payer is to ensure that this purely
volunteer group remains intact, well trained and ready to go.
Ross Township has 8 fire companies with approximately 300
volunteers consisting of fire fighters, administrative help, fire
police and junior members. Every year state regulations make
the cost and time requirements for training more demanding
on new and veteran members. Each new member costs
the companies upwards of $3,000 which is covered by Ross
Township General Fund budget contributions, federal and state
grants and fund raising efforts of the fire companies.
Help us thank them for the commitment and a job well done
by becoming a member of the Ross Township Volunteer
Firemen Discount Club. Any discount of any amount is deeply
appreciated. Any volunteer requesting a discount at your
establishment must present photo ID to receive the discount.
The Discount Club listing of participants will be published in our
magazine quarterly and posted at each fire hall. Following are
the current participants:
