The New Providence Volunteer Fire Department began the new year by taking stock of the hectic and successful previous year and getting ready for the difficulties that lie ahead in 2026. In addition to continuing training and community outreach initiatives throughout the year, department officials said that personnel responded to a variety of situations. The department is urging those who are still thinking about making a New Year's resolution to consider helping in their neighborhood as the year gets underway. The agency, which is entirely volunteer-run, is looking for committed people who are interested in public service, training, and emergency response. Those interested in learning more about joining the department are encouraged to visit the department’s website or reach out directly to the recruitment team for additional information.
