Sharing this to showcase the dedication and cooperation of volunteer firefighters and departments. These are probationary members who are unable to access their fire department, so they are traveling to another town to practice. They are in Fire 1 Academy which is all day Saturdays and Sundays. And then they go to their regular jobs during the week, because they are unpaid volunteers. Great work, Friends. Keep at it. πŸ’ͺπŸ™πŸš’

Two other members attended a community event as Three Windham departments. We also had members responding to calls during the day. If you are looking for a way to help, reach out to join!

When you hear the sirens in Windham, it’s your neighbors responding.

Our volunteers serve 24/7 β€” to fires, accidents, medical emergencies, and more. While their time is given freely, the equipment that protects this community is not.

Community support helps fund:
β€’ Protective gear
β€’ Life-saving medical equipment
β€’ Training
β€’ Apparatus maintenance

Every dollar stays local and helps keep your fire departments ready.

If you’d like to support the volunteers who protect Windham, you can donate, attend an event, share our posts, or reach out to learn more.

Thank you for standing with your local fire departments. πŸš’
