Junior Firefighter Program

The Community Volunteer Fire Department's Junior Firefighter Program is designed for youth, 13 – 18 years of age, who are interested in learning about a career in the fire service. This fun, hands-on program provides participants with opportunities to increase their self-confidence and develop leadership skills through fire service-related activities.

​

Junior Firefighters get to train with CVFD Firefighters and Instructors on topics which include, firefighting skills, hose handling evolutions, ladder techniques, salvage operations, proper use of firefighting tools and equipment, breathing apparatus, and other related subjects.

Junior Firefighters also have the opportunity to participate in ride-along shifts where they can assist CVFD firefighters in station activities and participate on emergency incidents (on a limited basis).
