The Town of Bay Roberts, Newfoundland and Labrador, is now looking for people to join Bay Roberts Fire Rescue as volunteer firefighters. This recruitment drive is meant to help keep local emergency services strong and ready to help residents.
People who want to help out must be at least 18 years old and have a valid Class 5 driver’s licence with a good driving history. Fire Chief Greg Squires says that you do not have to live inside the town borders to apply for a position on the crew.
All applications must be turned in by April 26, 2026, at 12 p.m. Potential volunteers will need to pass a criminal record check and provide medical forms as part of the application process.
Mayor Geoff Seymour and Deputy Mayor Neil Kearley helped plan a 2026 town budget that includes $618,352 for safety and protection services. This funding provides the support needed for the fire department to respond to calls and serve the community.
