Joining Quaker Springs Fire Department
Help Wanted
The Quaker Springs Fire Department is a
volunteer organization that is accepting new members.
The Department serves 50.2 square miles in the Town of
Saratoga and operates from two fire stations. Station 1 is on
Blodgett Road in Quaker Springs and Station 2 is on NYS Rt 9P at the
north end of Saratoga Lake. We
respond to various emergency calls ranging from fires to motor
vehicle accidents and boat rescues.
Volunteer firefighting can be very demanding -
both physically and in time spent. We respond to
approximately 100 calls per year and training is scheduled on a
weekly basis.
The Department offers its members various incentives in exchange for their dedicated service. These
incentives include a retirement system, extensive training and
protective gear (including new coat and boots for all firefighters
that successfully complete their probationary period).
Fire fighting can be a very rewarding
experience. If you believe you have what it takes to meet the
challenges of fire service, we invite you to call (518) 584-3349 or stop
by Station 1 any Thursday night. |
