We are always in need of members to replenish our ranks. Your obligation will be 12 hours per week, preferably one 12-hour day or night shift per week, but it can be done in two 6-hour sessions. In addition, two to four weekend day shifts per year are currently required. In return, you'll reap the intangible rewards of helping neighbors in distress.
Volunteers are always needed!
We always welcome inquiries from potential volunteers to fill openings on our team. We are most eager for volunteers who can serve on daytime shifts on weekdays or nighttime shifts on weekends. If you are at least 16 years old you can volunteer to join us. If you are between 16 and 18 years of age and are interested in our Squad's Junior program, that is an option as well.
There are a number of ways you can let us know of your interest:
-
Stop at the building on Ridge Road whenever you see us there
-
Talk to any of our members
-
Email: wm1staid@optimum.net with your contact information including phone number
-
Download a request for membership and mail it in or drop it off at the building.
