Recruitment
Leland Fire/Rescue is constantly looking for qualified volunteers to fill its ranks. The application process is a simple one and most training is provided by the local community college at no or reduced cost to the member. The department offers very diverse opportunities in fire/rescue operations (ages 18 and up ) and emergency medical services (ages 18 and up).

We also have a "Junior" program for eligible high school students. The
