This service allows the fire company to respond with EMS to medical emergency’s in our community. Several members have achieved their Firefighter I certification. Testing validates knowledge and competencies at a national level. Your donations enabled the purchase of new rescue tools to remove trapped people from vehicles, and Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) to allow us to breathe clean air in house fires.
