Dana, Dan and Kevin Sherman have 80 years combined in the fire service. They can tell you why they became volunteer firefighters. Personal growth, learning teamwork, and leadership skills, not to mention the camaraderie and brotherhood are all things they enjoy as members of the Knox Volunteer Fire Company.
Cody Fisher is a new recruit at the Knox Volunteer Fire Company. He heard his friends talk about what it’s like in the volunteer fire service, about it how much fun it is, how they get to help other people out. Cory decided he would join and learn to be of help to other people. Cody believes it will change his life in the long run.
If you’re thinking of joining the fire service Cody would tell you. “Just go out and do it. Just put your mind to it, don’t second-guess yourself, just do it.”
