Welcome to the East Greenbush Explorer Post 11.
The Explorers work alongside the department members in
order to gain a basic understanding of Firematics
(firefighting skills). The Explorers drill every
Tuesday night at the East Greenbush Fire Department
Park Station on Phillips Rd, and all Explorer Post
members have the option of responding to calls on any
EGFD apparatus. Whether you are thinking about
becoming a career firefighter, a volunteer
firefighter, or you're just looking to find out more
about firefighting, the Explorers provide an excellent
opportunity to experience firefighting without a set
time commitment. In order to join, you must be
between the ages of 14 and 21. Once you turn 17, you
have the option of applying to become a full member of
the East Greenbush Fire Department. If you are
thinking about joining the Explorers, or if you just
want to find out more about it, feel free to stop by
the Park Station slightly before 7:00pm on any Tuesday
to talk to the Explorers and observe our drills.
