Some members are trained in medical services. Some members of the department have been involved for decades, some are fairly new to the department. It really is a family as we become more involved, become better trained, respond to calls together, plan events together, and grow closer.
How much does it pay becoming a volunteer? Rewards are great! You get the satisfaction knowing you helped someone who really needed you. You get the wonderful feeling of pride when you wear a Etoile VFD Shirt. You enjoy the fellowship of your new "Family" and stuff like that.
