The Richmond Township Fire Protection District is pleased to announce the formation of Explorer Post 1400 in conjunction with the Boy Scouts of America.  Fire Explorer Post 1400 is open to Boys and Girls ages 15-19 with an interest in future careers in Fire and EMS services.  Explores train three times a month and have an open invitation to train with the firefighters and come to the station during emergency calls.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!

We are actively seeking High School Students interested in this rewarding and competitive field.  Openings are limited!  Train with the men and women of the Richmond Township Fire Protection District!
