Dear Member

Volunteer fire departments do much more than put out fires. It is important to the success of the department that it has a mission and that its community members see value in accomplishing that mission. In this month's eNews, you'll learn what volunteer departments need in order to chart their course for the future and to stay on that path.

Also, be sure to check out the tragic story of a former volunteer firefighter in Afghanistan who died while Skyping with his wife.

Firefighters are very good at putting out fires. We have trained to respond with no notice to any incident and react immediately. But we no longer just respond to emergencies and need to have a mission that guides us.
