Join Cedar City Fire Department As A Volunteer Firefighter Today!

The Cedar City Fire Department is actively seeking dedicated individuals to join their team as volunteer firefighters. This recruitment effort is a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to make a meaningful difference in their community. By becoming a volunteer firefighter, you can help enhance public safety and provide essential services while also receiving compensation for your time and efforts during shifts or when responding to emergencies from your home.

Volunteer firefighters play a crucial role in maintaining the quality of service and response times that the Cedar City community has come to rely on. This longstanding model of volunteer involvement ensures that the Fire Department can meet the needs of the community efficiently and effectively. It also allows a diverse range of individuals, from students and full-time employees to those simply passionate about giving back, to contribute to the safety and well-being of their neighbors.

An introductory meeting is scheduled for mid-October, offering interested applicants the chance to learn more about the volunteer firefighter program and have their questions answered. The Fire Department is particularly keen on engaging individuals who live within five miles of one of the three fire stations, as proximity is essential for rapid response times.

To be eligible, applicants must be at least 18 years old, possess a valid Utah driver’s license with a clean driving record, and pass a background check. If you’re interested in attending the upcoming meeting or want to know more about the volunteer firefighter program, you can fill out an interest form at the Cedar City website or reach out to Greg Orloski via email at greg.fire@cedarcityut.gov or phoning at 435 586 2964 for more information.
