We respond to an average of 200 calls per year.This is a significant increase from the 90 calls average, which we responded to about 10 years ago. 

Nope! Our members are 100% volunteer. Our members are a mix of people who have other full time jobs, or are students in schools. Our members could be professional teachers, plumbers, business professionals, electricians, EMTS, Paramedics, Firefighters, Truck Drivers, Metal Workers, Insurance Specialists. Beside from their full time jobs, or schooling, they also have the required training to respond to calls and help you!

Nope! Although a funny stereotype we don't come get them out. If they got in the tree they will get out. Now let us tell you, the cops do love their coffee and donuts! 

Unfortunately we do not. When one basement is flooded, chances are there are many people going through the same thing, and there is simply not enough time to do it. Besides we don't carry a pump like that on our trucks anyway!

We do not have an ambulance for you to run calls on, therefore we would not be a good fit for you! CFC is looking for people who are looking into being, or are, firefighters. Being cross trained as an EMS providers is great and will come in handy, but to join you must be looking to participate in fire related activities. 

If interested in volunteering with an EMS agency, Check out Cheltenham EMS, and get involved!
