Cadet Firefighter

The Cadet Firefighter program is open to young adults ages 15 to 17. The benefits of starting in our Cadet Firefighting program are numerous. It serves as a great foundation for young adults to build upon. Including discipline, confidence building, morale and an emphasis on school work and shaping their futures. All of this, plus helping your neighbors! Cadet members will be able to ride the apparatus as long as they have attended classes at the Delaware State Fire School in the Spring and Fall. The members will not be able to enter the structure, but can still provide needed help on the fire scene. At the age of 17, the member will become a probationary firefighter.

Fire and EMS training is conducted in house and at the nationally recognized Delaware State Fire School. We train continuously to maintain the highest levels of professionalism that we expect from our members and the community expects from us.

Requirements: Ages 15 to 17

Application Deadline: Continuous
