Description
Volunteer firefighters account for almost 70% of the nation's firefighters. Volunteer firefighters respond to the same calls for service, use the same equipment and have the same training as paid firefighters, but due to economic reasons, volunteer their time and talent to the community in which they live to protect and defend their hometown from natural and manmade disasters. The Village of Jemez Springs currently has 18 full time firefighters, and we are always looking to add dedicated men and women who want to make a difference in their community.
