Welcome to the

Greenport Fire Department

This is the home page for the training needs of the department.

I hope to grow the site and organize it so the members can reach their full potential through training exercises, educational programs and drills. Our goal should be to keep our names from appearing on the Fallen Firefighter list and that everyone goes home safe.

If there are any subjects for which you would like to receive training, we would be willing to obtain a course or invite outside instructors to teach a course for the improvement of our abilities for any subject matter pertaining to firefighting, vehicle extrication and many other areas.
