The Wind Lake Volunteer Fire Company is built on a rich history of tradition and service to the community. Whether you are interested in serving your community directly, getting a foot in the door with the fire service, or looking for a job we welcome you with open arms. If interested, check out the information below and submit an online interest form here.

We are currently hiring part time firefighters, EMTs, paramedics and full time firefighter paramedics. Compensation is based on experience and certifications with education opportunities available to all members of the department. 

Shifts are available in 12 hour increments for part time employees and 4 hour increments for paid on call/volunteer members. The day to day activities are pretty similar to most American fire departments. The on duty crew begin their shift by passing on any information, preparing their equipment for the day, and checking over all vehicles and equipment. The on duty crew complete chores, side projects such as general station maintenance, in service training, and respond to any calls for service. The on duty crew finishes off the day with a dinner and down time.
