Open Enrollment for the Mark Coons Scholarship is open now! March 1st - April 1st, 2026
A company is only as good as the people that put their time and energy into it, and a volunteer fire department is no exception. Everyone can contribute to the continued success of the Bloomsburg Fire Department; if you have a strength, we can find a place for you!
There are many classes of membership open, each meeting different needs and requiring different skill sets.
Types of Membership:
Junior Firefighter - Our Junior Firefighter program allow minors aged 14-17 to join our dept. and participate in trainings and classes to become Active Firefighters when they turn 18
Active Firefighter - This involves some training and allows the member to be involved in what are considered "traditional" aspects of a fire department: fire suppression, driving apparatus, water and vehicle rescues
Fire Police - An integral part of any fire department, the fire police help control any foot and vehicle traffic around a fire ground or community event. Although no less important, this requires less training and is less physically demanding
Social Member - Becoming a part of the fire department does not have to involve ANY physically-demanding or safety-compromising situations. Our social members can help with bingos and other fundraising ventures, as well as the business end of firefighting, including paperwork and accounting
The best way to expediate becoming a member is to drop the completed application off in person at our monthly dept. meeting, held every third Tuesday of the month
