Patch Asks Intermountain: What Are the Requirements for Being a Volunteer?
Intermountain Fire and Rescue Captain Adam Pollock answers a reader's question on what a volunteer needs to do in order to have a position at the station.
A month ago, we asked readers what they would ask one of our volunteer firefighters over at Intermountain Fire and Rescue.
The department was established by "a concerned group of citizens who wanted to provide better fire protection for their community" and serves an area of 125 square miles bordering Ramona, Julian, Lake Henshaw and Palomar Mountain.
Readers submitted a variety of questions on the comments, like "How does it feel fighting fire?" and "How many calls do you get on a weekly basis?"
