With people busier than ever -

often too weighed down by life to volunteer -

fire departments across Aroostook County are facing a shortage.

The Grand Isle Fire Department is always looking
for new members to join our ranks.


Even with absolutely no fire fighting or volunteering experience,

the Grand Isle Fire Department can serve as your way to assist
your local community.

Females encouraged to apply!

Volunteers must make an effort to attend monthly meetings,

and training, and are encouraged to stay physically fit to

keep up with the physical demands of firefighting.


Additional Federal Firefighting training available if you're interested,....

the sky's the limit!

 

For more information on this
rewarding volunteer career....
