Selkirk Fire hosts recruitment drive
Bonner County Daily Bee | UPDATED 5 years, 1 month AGO
SANDPOINT — Interested in being a firefighter? Selkirk Fire Rescue & EMS wants to talk to you.
The department has launched a recruitment drive for volunteer and resident firefighters to add to its current roster. Registration for agility testing and interviews is ongoing and runs through March 18. Tests will be conducted March 21.
The volunteer and resident firefighters supplement career crews during large incidents, whether it’s a big fire, a big rescue call, or highway accident when more hands are needed on scene or to staff the station because all hands are needed to deal with an incident.
Volunteers are also asked to help with community events, from local food drives or fundraisers to fire prevention programs at local schools and more.
All interested must register by March 18 to take part in the tests and interviews, which will be held Saturday, March 21, from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. at Selkirk Fire Rescue & EMS’ Station 1, 1123 Lake St.
To register, go online to selkirkfire.com. For questions, call 208-263-3502.
