The Fort Washington Fire Company is a 100% volunteer organization and is always seeking new members. We have several types of membership, which do not all involve fire fighting.
- Junior Members-Age 16-17. Go through regular training and provide fire ground support functions, but are not permitted to operate in hazardous environments until they reach the age of 18. Many of our current members started as junior members.
- Firefighters-Age 18 and up. Respond to fire calls and undergo extensive training at one of the local fire academies as well as in-house training through the fire company.
- Fire Police-Provide traffic control and crowd control at emergency scenes as well as special events such as parades and carnivals.
- Associate Members-Provide administrative support to the fire company. These administrative functions include, but are not limited to, accounting, clerical, computer networking and programming, facility management, etc.
All training and equipment is provided by the fire company.
