To address the staffing challenges and help the department overcome recruitment and retention obstacles, the San Leon volunteer fire department has launched the “Volunteer Firefighter Recruitment Campaign”. The campaign has two main focuses; raise awareness of the need for fire service volunteers among the public and successfully recruit and retain volunteers. Every Tuesday and Thursday from 7 PM till 9 PM the department will have recruiters at the station available to answer any questions members of the community might have about becoming a volunteer and to get them started with the application process. The next new member Summer Academy will be starting on August 1, so now’s the time to become a member of the San Leon volunteer fire department.
