In Case You Wondered What a Fire Cadet Was

When I read the information about the Utica cadet program I started to ask questions about what it was and how the program works. I understand that Spring Valley has also started a program to get the young people involved in fire protection and what it means to be a fireman or woman. I also understand that Peru has the approval to start one but has never got it started. Read the few I have blogged and google more cities for more information. Very informational and an interesting idea that is working for cities of all sizes. If anyone has worked with this we would like to hear from you.

Spring Valley has had a very successful cadet program for over 30 + years. Our current chief is a past cadet in his younger years. Very helpful and educational for the area youth with support from the school and community. Awesome program!
