Volunteer Department Gets New Members

I read lots of articles about volunteer departments having a difficult time recruiting enough members. Here is an article (from citizensvoice.com) about a department that is actually growing their membership.

Two years ago, the Honey Pot Fire Company had a difficult time attracting enough members to form a quorum for company meetings.

Today, fire company association president Chester Kopco has a hard time finding enough equipment for all the people volunteering to serve on the fire company. Not that he is complaining.

Read the rest of the article to find out how they are getting new members.
