Firefighters

With the exception of Chief Mojzuk all firefighters are paid on-call volunteers meaning they are paid if they respond.  Our roster of volunteers typically ranges between 14–16 people.  In addition to being qualified as firefighters all of our volunteers are also licensed by the State of Michigan as medical first responders.

We are always happy to accept applications for firefighters/first responders.  Applications may be obtained from the township hall.  To qualify applicants must reside in the township, be 18 or older, have completed high school, have a valid Michigan drivers’ license, and pass both a criminal background check and a physical.  Applicants are required to complete fire school within 2 years, and must also obtain their first responder license.  Even after becoming fully qualified, training continues and is required of everyone at least once each month.  First responders must also meet state continuing educational requirements.
