Volunteer Program

Skamania EMS and Rescue endeavors to build a program that motivates and retains volunteers, recognizing that volunteer service is beneficial to the daily operations and long-term success of the agency. Persons who have a history of service with fire or emergency medical response agencies will find our volunteer program beneficial and inclusive of opportunities to give back to their communities.

Volunteers who serve as a member of our scheduled duty staff will supplement services provided by paid personnel to provide greater community outreach at programs and events, and to provide necessary coverage during known and unanticipated times. Volunteer personnel are not intended to replace paid part time or full time staff, but rather to provide additional benefit to overall agency programs.

Skamania EMS and Rescue recruits and tests applicants for our Volunteer Program a minimum of twice yearly, in February and October. Volunteer recruitment notification will be posted here. We do not accept applications outside of the recruitment period.
