Walton Fire and EMS Explorer post 30

10/30/2025

We are recruiting new members, due to some of our members aging out and joining the department (which is a good thing), our Explorer group is in need of new members. We have the Explorer post for ages 14 and up and we have the Explorer club for 12 and 13 year olds. If you or know a young adult that is interested in helping the community and adding a very impressive bullet point to your resume or college application, please message this page and we will get pointed in the right direction. There is no cost to you and we meet once a month and have drill once a month.

We (by we i mean me, all my troops are in school lol) delivered our first round of collections to the food bank today. Thank you to everyone who donated and a special thank you to department member Marc Cetta who organized the large donation from Chobani and thank you to those who helped load it, Jamie, Tyler, Ava and explorer member Nichole. While at the food bank I discovered a group of volunteers who fly under the radar, the people who run the food bank were hard at work serving those who utilize it ( there are a lot of people who depend on it) , thank you for all you do, the food bank is located in the red brick church on East Street and is open Tuesdays 11-1. If you would like to donate please message this page with your address and we will pick up tomorrow night, 10/28 around 6pm. Thank you

Donations are being scheduled, thank you for helping our neighbors.

Hello all, there is a real chance that food assistance programs may be closed or delayed in November because of the government shutdown, we want to make sure that the people in our community who need it have access to basic food items. We are going to quickly put together a food drive and attempt to fill local food banks. We need you to donate non perishable food items and we will collect them. If you could organize with your neighbors and get the donations collected in one spot that would help us tremendously, we will still collect even if it’s from one household. We will collect Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings next week at 6pm (10/27,10/29,10/31) you can message the pick up address to this page. Please share this post and let’s help our neighbors. Thank you.

This passed week, the explorers decided to go camping at Adventure Bound Camping Resorts! It was all around a wonderful time! No many pictures as the kids decided to spread out and do their own thing. All I can say is the kids had a blast and the advisors were exhausted 😂

On this beautiful day, the explorers decided to go down by the boat ramp and the old breakey’s to clean up trash along side the river. After picking up trash, the explorers treated themselves to some fishing! Good job kids!
