Rockland County Volunteer Firefighter Ads

[JohnnyOV 2]

Was reading www.lohud.com this morning, and noticed an ad for "Rockland County Volunteer Firefighters" with a scrolling ad that asked "Could you be the one?"

Nice, quick and informative ad that has a centralized number to call for questions about volunteering, and a link, when clicked on the ad brings you to an awesome website: http://www.b1o1.org , which has mulitple videos and Q&A about becoming a volunteer and what is involved.

The website is very nice, and I applaud the initiative as well as the assertiveness of the Rockland folks who took the time to put all of this together. My question is, why cant Westchester or other counties accomplish this? Rockland's got their sh!t together, why can't we?

Very nice to see some County level organization. I wonder if this was funded by the federal recruitment grant.

I know Battalion 13 has a combined recruitment committee made up of members from each department... They were working on local ads also.
