Hey Guys Just wondering what type of calls the explorers in your post get to run and are there any limitations and why not share some stories too!

We get to go on anything, but as we are really rural, its mostly structure, Tc's, medical's, and wildland.

Ours are not allowed to respond to anything. It's a liability thing!

Our Junior Firefighters train, are equipped, and respond right along with our regular firefighters. However, they are not able to go into burning structures unless it is during a "Burn To Learn" or training burn. We expect them to maintain a C average or above in the school grades and perform satisfactorily in school. They also must maintain appropriate behavior in the community. We expect them to behave in a manner that is professional and similar to what our Department represents in the community. Basically their main limitations is their time and age.
