Thank you for your interest in serving with the Takoma Park Volunteer Fire Department!

The fire/rescue service and emergency medical service offer exciting challenges and a valuable, rewarding way to serve the community. In return for your commitment of one evening per week, we offer training that will always be in great demand – and the opportunity to help your neighbors when they need it most.

The Montgomery County Fire & Rescue Service is a “combination” service in which approximately 1,000 career firefighters and 1,000 volunteers serve side by side. Career and volunteer personnel take the same training courses and are held to the same standards while on duty. Here in Takoma Park, we work closely with the career personnel assigned to Station 2. Please note, however, that the career personnel are not involved in volunteer recruiting. It is important to return all application paperwork to the volunteer administrative office.

Your first step is to schedule an orientation meeting with our membership committee. Please email: tina.willey@montgomerycountymd.gov

We look forward to hearing from you.
