Do you live in the 10989? The Valley Cottage Fire Department has a spot for you! The mission of the Valley Cottage Engine Company No. 1 is "To provide the highest level of fire protection, fire prevention, rescue and emergency services at an affordable cost to the residents and businesses of Valley Cottage." We need and appreciate your help in achieving this mission. Established in 1914, the Valley Cottage Engine Company No. 1 is a leading provider of emergency services in Rockland County, protecting residents and businesses in Valley Cottage and surrounding towns and cities. We provide comprehensive fire fighting, vehicle extrication and fire prevention education from our firehouse. We are a 100% volunteer non-profit organization. The Valley Cottage Fire Engine Company No. 1’s team of approximately 50 active volunteer firefighters is comprised of your neighbors, your friends and maybe even your relatives. They’re people just like you – with families, jobs and active lifestyles who still find time to give back to their community. Valley Cottage Fire Engine Company No. 1 offers a friendly environment for you to discover your capabilities and make the most of your volunteering investment. The department currently maintains a fleet of two pumpers, one aerial ladder truck, a rescue truck, a patrol vehicle and three command vehicles for the chiefs. Valley Cottage Fire Engine Company No. 1 seeks volunteers to bolster its ranks in a diverse range of services. We offer a long list of benefits and a friendly, fun professional atmosphere. | Requirements: Although no previous experience or training is required, you need more than just a desire to help people. You also need courage and dedication, assertiveness, and a willingness to learn new skills and face new challenges. Our service is one that calls on its members to perform hot, sweaty, dirty, strenuous work, often in uncertain and hazardous environments. Our volunteers need to be team players, respecting each other’s role and contributions. You need to be able to work on-call and to deal with occasional interruptions to your lifestyle, dropping what you’re doing at the ‘tones’ to respond to the emergency needs of your fellow citizen. Company members are expected to participate in a minimum of 50 activities annually. Fire department activities encompass responses to emergency calls, training sessions, drills to maintain the fire apparatus and equipment, meetings and other miscellaneous activities. While emergency calls occur at any time of the day and week, most drills take place on Sunday mornings and Monday evenings. The second Monday of every month is the Company meeting where administrative matters are discussed and handled. We offer a lot of benefits you can expect from us, and in return there are certain objectives we expect you to meet: TO APPLY: You must be at least 16 years of age to apply. A statement of parental or guardian consent must accompany an application from anyone under the age of 18 years old. You must be a US citizen. You must be physically, intellectually and emotionally capable of performing the duties according to your area of assignment. You must reside within or near the Valley Cottage Fire District. You must have no arrests or convictions for arson. UPON ACCEPTANCE: 1) New members must complete a new recruit orientation program before responding to emergency incidents. 2) New recruits must successfully pass, within 90 days of notification of acceptance, an OSHA physical examination with illicit drug testing conducted by our designated physician and paid for by the fire department. 3) New members will be considered on probation for a period of 9 months. Their probationary activities will be reviewed within 30 days of their ninth month of active service and the probationary member will be recommended for continued service or termination at that time. 4) Removal from probationary status requires that the aforementioned requirements be fulfilled along with the probationary requirements of their membership classification. 5) New firefighters must attend regularly scheduled or special drills during the probationary period. 6) New firefighters must complete, within one year of notification of acceptance, the New York State Firefighter 1 basic firefighter training course. This entails either 128 hours of in-person classes over a set schedule (Basic Exterior Firefighting Operations followed by Interior Firefighting Operations), or, a blended learning Firefighter 1 course (26 units of on-site skills training and 22 units of independent online learning) over a set 9 week period. Probationary firefighters will not be allowed to attend any other courses prior to completion of the New York State Firefighter 1 course. Failure to complete the minimum training requirements can result in termination of membership. | Categories: Firefighter
