Why I Joined Fire/EMS

My grandpa was a firefighter with our local department, and I wanted to help out my community as much as I could. I grew up here and this is my way of giving back. Were all volunteer here and it feels like being part of a big extended family.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

I love being an EMT no matter what the time of the call, I'm still excited to hear my tones drop, and when you have a run that touches you it's a great feeling
