The East Hazel Crest Volunteer Fire Department is in search of new, and excited volunteers to join our ranks! Do you have a passion for serving others, working hard, and making a difference every day in someone's life? If this is true we want you!

The East Hazel Crest Volunteer Fire Department is a All hazards response agency serving a community of approximately 1500 residents.
The Fire Department responds annually to over 400 calls a year.
The Department is staffed with 1 full time Deputy chief and 20 paid on call members who respond from home. The Fire Department operates out of 2 fire houses utilizing 3 Engines 1 Rescue Squad and 2 Support Command vehicles.

We are looking to establish a new program of volunteer staffing of the fire department to provide faster response times to our citizens and visitors. This is a perfect opportunity to learn the trade off a Firefighter as a future career or to serve your community. All members receive pay per call from the Village and small number of Paid shifts are available on the weekends.

If you are looking to be sponsored through a fire academy we are looking to help support you with potential reimbursement upon 2 years of service to our department and successful completion of state certification.

Applications can be picked up at the Fire Department Monday - Friday 8am-4pm or Thursday evening at 7pm on Training nights.
