Current Openings

In preparation for our Winter Firefighter Recruitment, we're offering TWO physical agility tests:

• October (10/21/25 at 8:00AM at Ingersoll Turf Facility in Auburn)
• January (1/06/26 - same time and place)

If you'd like to participate in the October Firefighter Physical Agility Test, please click HERE to register. We don't need an application packet submitted at this time.

NOTE: Each candidate only has to pass the Physical Agility Test once, so if you attend and pass the October test, you do not need to attend the 2nd test. If you don't pass in October, you'll have a second chance to test in January.
