Fountain Rural Fire - Juniors

01/12/2026

Congratulations to all the winners but especially Brayden Culifer.

Just an interesting tidbit all winners got involved at young age. With three being alumni of our Junior Membership Program and the other two joining at 16 (before we had established our Junior Membership Program). Evidence that getting volunteers in the door early will help with retention.

Junior firefighter programs mentor our next generation of first responders and provide them the chance to learn about local fire, rescue, and emergency medical services response organizations in a safe, controlled, educational, and fun way. It also provides them with valuable life skills such as teamwork, leadership, responsibility, and commitment so they can grow into tomorrow’s fire service leaders. Your department gains non-operational support and a powerful recruitment mechanism. Junior Firefighters must be 14-17 years of age.

Good evening,
Since last Sunday Brayden Culifer has spent the week attending the Caleb Benfield Challenge @ Bethlehem Fire & Rescue in Bethlehem, NC. While there they participated in several different trainings and received 64 training hours, they did PT every morning and had to help cook. They went to Charlotte Fire Dept Sta 17 (The Airport) and they rode on the Blaze (ARFF) truck and got to play with it a little. They also visited Sta 38 (Lake Wylie). He also learned other skills teamwork as he was paired with another participant and, they had to put a presentation together on a certain FF tool. Him and his partner decided to do the ventilation saw. All in all he had fun I have a few pictures and, I will post more when I recieve them.
