Being a member of the Roslyn Fire Company is a very rewarding experience for many of our members. The Company offers its members the opportunity to begin and continue their fire education throughout their lifetime.

Fighting Fires is not the only way to become a member of the Roslyn Fire Company. There are many positions that require the help of "behind the scenes" volunteers to keep the fire company running. General Body Membership, for instance, is an excellent way to serve your community without running into a burning building. The Roslyn Fire Company requires the help and assistance of many volunteers that dedicate their time to many different aspects of the company.

Junior Firefighter Our Junior Program at the Roslyn Fire Company gives our younger volunteers the chance to learn how to become a firefighter.

Junior members are young adults between the ages of 16 and 17 that express an interest in the fire service. As a Junior, members begin to learn about Firefighting Tactics and the Fire Service as an Organization. The Junior will attend the Firefighter I course with members of other Fire companies to learn the basics of Incident Command, Fireground Operations, and Firefighting Skills. The Class requires successful completion of a Written Final Exam as well as a Practical Skills Examination and a Structural Burn. Participation in the Practical and Burn sessions is suspended until the Junior member turns 18.
