New Member Requirements
November 9, 2009
Changes are coming! Beginning January 1, 2010, the requirements to be a volunteer member of the Jollyville Fire Department are increasing. The changes are: increasing the minimum number of hours required per month from 8 to 36, increasing the number of overnight stays from 1 to 2, requiring all members to stay at the station on their overnights and for all members to maintain a 100% attendance rate for Monday Night Trainings. We will also be implementing a required doctor’s physical to apply as a member of the department and for all of those members already involved that did not have it done prior to being voted in. These changes will make our department stronger and keep our training standards at a more consistent level.
