The Friendship Fire & Hose Co. No 1 (Elizabethtown Fire Department) is seeking candidates for our Junior Firefighter Program.

This program is a great way for persons under the age of 18 to be introduced to the fire service and begin to learn that basics of firefighting. The program also introduces junior firefighters to the fire department family and helps to build strong bonds that will last a life time.

Junior Firefighters at EFD are provided with gear, uniforms and free training. Junior Firefighters are expected to attend trainings when available and respond to calls as their schedule permits. EFD is 100% committed to ensuring that junior firefighters make school a priority while exposing them to a variety of aspects of the fire service.

Junior firefighters are also eligible to assist with fire prevention and fund raising details. In doing so, they become eligible for the department's annual incentive program and eventually participate in the department's tuition assistance program as they pursue a higher education.
