Why I Joined Fire/EMS

Who doesn't love and get a little adrenaline rush when a fire truck goes by!!! I was remarried 3 years ago and my husband is a firefighter. He suggested I join the ladies auxillary only to find our department didn't have one, so they told me to become a firefighter. I haven't looked back yet!!

Why I Love Fire/EMS

I am proud of the fact that I can help my community the way I do. My extended fire/ems family ...well you can explain it unless your a part of it.
