History is punctuated by examples of brave men and women who freely admit their personal shortcomings, who openly acknowledge their limitations and who fully understand that taking risks can lead to devastating outcomes. Among this group of men and women, are a smaller number who not only acknowledge their personal limitation and the potential cost of taking risk, but who visualize the future and take proactive, measured risks in an effort to prepare for the unknown.

Volunteer Information
Volunteers are in integral part of the fire service all over the world. Even today, many departments are manned solely with volunteers; everyday citizens who made the decision to make a difference in their communities by performing life and property saving duties.
Marion County Fire District and Turner Fire District are combination departments, meaning that they are comprised of both paid and volunteer staff that responds to fire and medical emergencies.
All volunteers receive a high level of training in not only fire fighting, but also in fire prevention, CPR and First Aid, driver awareness, hazardous materials procedures, radio communications and basic report writing. Click here for more info...
