The Nature of Fire Fighting
The Fire Service is a diverse and challenging profession that offers many different types of personal rewards. It is this diversity that inspires men and women to become fire fighters and serve their communities.
A strong desire to help people and protect your community is needed to be a member of our department along with courage and the willingness to learn new skills and face new challenges. You need to be able to control your emotions during times of crisis and meet the challenges you face.
Fire fighters are trained to respond to and handle many different types of incidents from a dumpster fire to a structure fire, motor vehicle incidents to offering medical aid. Emergencies can happen at any time of the day or night during all types of weather, from rain and snow to extreme cold and heat. The work of a fire fighter is hot, sweaty, dirty and strenuous combined with the hazardous environment we perform it in; it is not for the meek or timid.
