Letter from Chief William Selzer

Like many volunteer fire departments, ours is faced with the same challenges of recruitment, retention, and meeting the regulatory requirements of federal, state, and local agencies. Through the selfless dedication of time and energy by our membership, we continue to provide cost-effective services, meeting the needs of our community.

As a volunteer-based department, we continue to provide training and mentoring for those seeking career positions in the fire service. As a result, over the past 20 years we have trained 14 members who are now in career departments.
