Proudly Serving Wooster Township Since 1940
Our Team
Our department is comprised of the Fire Chief, two Assistant Chiefs, three Captains, four Lieutenants, and our Firefighter/EMTs. Every member is trained as both a Firefighter and Emergency Medical Technician.
We maintain a roster of 25–30 volunteers and 8 full-time career members. Volunteers help cover shifts during the week and weekends, and all members are expected to respond to fire calls when available.
