It’s an opportunity for young people to learn first hand about firefighting.
The Augusta Fire Department is bringing back its junior firefighter program for youth in our community aged 16 and 17.
The department says the program is designed for those who are interested in learning more about being a firefighter and they say it will focus on skill building, health and safety in the fire service, teamwork, discipline, communication and problem solving skills.
An information session will be held after all applications are received where parents/guardians and applicants will be able to gain more information and ask any questions they may have.
Applications are due by May 27 and you can visit the township’s website to learn more.
