The Wadesboro Fire Department accepts applications for membership year-round and encourages anyone with a desire to serve others or a curiosity about our organization to speak with one of our members and, if desired, apply for membership. We seek individuals with strong moral fiber and a willingness to prioritize the needs of others.  This is a family of members, and as a member, you are part of that family.  It is hard work, but the reward of serving others greatly outweighs that difficulty.

No experience or knowledge is required for the job. We offer in-house training and have the capabilities of enrolling members in classes necessary to become certified and qualified emergency services providers in various areas of fire department operations, if desired.  These include certifications in fire, rescue, and medical services.  Upon completion and return of your application, it will be reviewed by the department. If approved, you will meet with the membership committee, be issued turnout gear and equipment, and be placed on a probationary period.  During that period of no less than 12 months, you will have to obtain a minimum of 36 hours of training for the department.
