2025 Jr Fire Academy Registration
Franklin County Fire Chiefs’ Association
2025 Junior Firefighter Academy
We are proud to announce the annual Junior Fire Academy. This year’s academy will be open to junior firefighters age 14-17 seeking to expand their knowledge and skills in the delivery of emergency services, while experiencing challenging and important life lessons in character, integrity, responsibility, discipline, accountability, teamwork and leadership. Participants will build upon each other’s skills daily. Each day will begin at 0730 hrs. and go until 1600 hrs.
The three day academy will provide focus on engine, truck and rescue company operations, while providing participants with the opportunity to take the skills learned to put in practical use during hands on skill stations.
All of these events will lead up to a live skills drill for family and friends to see first hand the skills obtained through the academy. This will end with a graduation ceremony for participants to celebrate their achievements.
Uniform each day will be black or blue shorts and t-shirt from your host department.
Registration will open May 1st and be open until June 1st. Registration is available to both in and out of county agencies at the start of registration.
Media is welcome throughout the week. Phone notification is suggested.
