Just a friendly reminder that the Berlin Rescue Squad still needs individuals interested in becoming members of our volunteer ambulance service. Training materials are provided and mileage will be reimbursed. We also offer LOSAP (Length of Service Award Program) to members who meet training and response requirements. Our continued viability depends on recruiting and retaining new members. Please contact Captain Tammy Osterhaut at 658-2924 for a membership application.
There are also two Berlin Board of Fire Commissioner seats to be filled in the upcoming election. Maybe you are unable to be a member of the Fire Company but still you want to participate in serving your community…being a Commissioner just might be for you. Meetings are held monthly, and the Commissioners are responsible for the fiduciary affairs, as well as setting up policies and procedures, of the Fire District.
Again, training is provided and paid for by the District.
Remember: Volunteerism is the Spirit of America!
