H.S.S.P FPD relies upon our dedicated volunteer members, who are willing to commit the time necessary to cover the number of diverse emergency calls we receive. In fact, we are made up by 100% volunteers. We respond to structure fires, automobile collisions, hazardous materials incidents, wild land fires, fire alarms, medical assists, and public assistance calls. This variety of calls provides you with an excellent opportunity to gain experience in the field of Fire and Emergency Services, while providing a valuable service to the local community.
