What We Do
Our Explorers are issued Uniforms and Firefighting gear. They train with actual Firefighting equipment in a controlled environment that ensures the safety of all our members. The Post Advisors also deliver a curriculum in a classroom setting that is consistent with what real Firefighters learn as they complete their training. The Explorers are used at real fire scenes and similar emergencies to help change Firefighters air tanks and other non-hazardous duties. The Explorers attend meetings, and train with neighboring Fire Departments as part of an ongoing Team Building exercise. Our Explorers also have a firematic tournament team called “The Green Onions” in which they compete against other area Explorer posts during the summer months. The Explorers also march in area Firemen’s Parades and perform several Fund Raising events throughout the year. Explorers will develop a sense of pride and commitment in volunteering for their community as they work together to learn the fundamentals of firefighting.
