We would love to talk to anyone about joining our department. When I started on this department I swore that I would only be a driver, and as the years went by, 7 to be exact, I realized that I could and needed to do more. And my only regret was not starting sooner. We have times that are tough, and other times you can see just how much of an impact you make on someone’s life. This article is correct, you may not think you have what it takes, but what if you do, what if you can make a difference in your neighbors life, or save their life. Please consider, or even reach out to me and talk to me about it, you may find you have a passion for helping others. If you want to talk to me my name is Mitch Neemann and I’m the Chef and would love to chat about joining.

All the fire departments in the country need help. We’ve heard all the excuses. I can’t commit to (fill in the blank), I’m not always available, I’m too young/old, I don’t know anything about it. They are just excuses. We are all volunteers. We can when we can and we can’t when we can’t.

This is an incredible job you get paid for in ways that aren’t money. If you’ve ever thought about it, contact the VFD in your area. The hardest part, is walking through that station door the first time.

We all live in the communities we serve. How can you make a difference?

Every fire department across the country needs help.

Thank you for all of the first responders who give up countless hours to help others when they need it the most. It has been one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever been a part of and encourage everyone to consider joining.

We were surprised this past Wednesday!!! Tecumseh Poultry generously donated to our department, this is going to be used for updating some of our equipment and we are going to be adding some new equipment for our responders safety while on roadways and searching in fields and ditches. We truly appreciate their support for us.

Beautiful night with the amazing team from StarCare, someone even got a ride around town before they left!

UPDATE***
Due to the forecast for Monday, our training has been rescheduled for this Saturday October 4th at 1830.

This upcoming Monday night, October 6th we will be hosting a Landing Zone training with StarCare. If all goes well, they will be able to bring their helicopter down, so don’t be alarmed it’s just for training.

We have had many supporters over the past years, today Tractor Supply donated 20 cases of water. That water is also used for the fire departments in our district for them to stay hydrated during fires. We appreciate everyone’s support.

This statement means so much, in small towns though it is often taking care of people you grew up with or helped raise you. The majority of people in EMS across the nation are volunteers, missing out on their own family activities or holidays, but are still willing to give back to their communities. We strive to help any agency continue to help their community by assisting them with billing to fund their service to keep up to date equipment to provide the highest level of patient care. We always encourage everyone to look into volunteering on your local volunteer rescue squad.

All true!
