Help Us Help You!!

"Neighbors Helping Neighbors"

The Little Silver Fire Company #1 is an all volunteer department and we are always in need of new members to fill our ranks.  Volunteering to help your community is very rewarding.  There are many types of membership in which residents can help our organization:

Active Membership:

Active members are the firefighters who respond to emergency calls & fire alarms within the borough.  Firefighter training is provided at no cost & is easy to incorporate into even a busy schedule.  Training takes place at the Monmouth County Fire Academy in Howell & new members can choose to attend on either Saturday or Sunday for 12 weeks.  Upon graduation, members become NJ State certified firefighters, as well as certified to provide basic first aid & CPR.  Training is ongoing throughout a firefighter's entire career with drills & classes occurring monthly to update skills & advance our capability to protect our residents.  

To become a firefighter, contact the LSFD Fire Chief at 848-207-7220 or stop by the Fire House on Prospect Ave any Monday night between 7pm & 9pm.

Social Membership:

Social members are vital to our organization, with all the benefits of membership as an Active member, without the firefighter training or requirements.  Social members help run the business side of our organization, such as fundraising, annual events such as the Halloween parade & our awards banquet.  Many social members hold offices within the Fire Company.  Social members can hold any position within the company except those pertaining to firefighting.

To become a social member, you can download the social membership application HERE.  Simply follow the instructions & drop the application off at the Fire House on any Monday night between 7pm & 9pm.

Cadet Membership:

Fire cadets are an essential part of the fire company.  From helping on engineer's night to assisting on fire calls, cadets learn many skills that are needed to become a firefighter.  On the fire scene, cadets are closely supervised and perform tasks such as changing air cylinders and setting up tools away from hazardous environments.  Many cadets that have gone through the program have moved on to become firefighters.  Anyone aging from 14-18 that is interested in becoming a fire cadet, please stop by the firehouse any Monday night between 7pm & 9 pm.

Fire Police:

The Little Silver Fire Police is a very important part of the fire company. They operate at all emergency scenes and control the traffic flow and the crowd.  These members allow firefighters to operate safely on fire scenes without the worry of traffic or large crowds getting in the way.

If you are interested in joining any position but not sure how to start, stop by the firehouse on Prospect Avenue any Monday night between 7pm & 9pm.  Members will be there to show you around and lead you in the right direction!
