Volunteer Firefighter

Anyone interested in serving the community and joining our team, please feel free to contact any member of the fire company or come to the firehouse any Friday night for information. The Island Heights Volunteer Fire Company is comprised of a dedicated group of volunteers who devote much of their free time to serving the community. In addition to responding to calls for service at all hours of the day, the volunteers routinely conduct training exercises, check apparatus and equipment, clean the firehouse, fundraise and participate in community events. The time devoted to preparing for and responding to calls for service is prioritized by the volunteers over their personal time, including all fundraising efforts by which the company is almost entirely funded. This devotion and sense of responsibility, contribution and pride is what makes the company such a tight-knit family.
