Explorer's offers life experience, training to save lives, and the chance for any boy or girl 14-18 to make a difference in their community!
One of the things the Union Hill Fire Department is most proud of is our Explorer Post. Our Explorers are basically junior Firefighters. They participate in our weekly drill and are allowed to come and help the Firefighters on a call once they have proven that they are qualified enough to do so. Many of the Firefighters at Union Hill today were once a part of either the Union Hill Explorer post or another Explorer post. If you wish to join the UHFD Explorer Post you must be at least 14 years of age and have completed the 8th Grade. You must also live in or near the Union Hill Fire District. Please contact our head advisor Sherry Willis at [email protected] or at [email protected] .
The Mission of the Union Hill Fire Department Explorer Program is to train the next generation of firefighters and give a teenager life skills that may save a life in the future. We are able to do this through doing drills with the fireman and taking CPR and AED, and first aid classes. Along with many other opportunities and certifications you will be able to take with you whatever path you take in life.
