If you're interested in joining our team as a volunteer firefighter, we invite you to stop by our headquarters at 3 Township Road, Richboro, for a brief interview and the opportunity to meet our staff. Successful applicants will start as probationary members. Probationary service approval takes place at our monthly meeting, held on the first Monday of each month at Station #3 in Richboro. Following orientation and training, the department administration will assess your progress and determine when you will become a full, regular firefighter.
A criminal background check is required, and our personnel will facilitate this process. Additionally, a Pennsylvania Child Abuse History clearance is mandatory, and a link to complete this will be provided after your interview.
Thank you for your interest in supporting our volunteer organization. We look forward to meeting you!
