“The A-Team”
Station 4 has a long and proud tradition of having the station staffed 24/7 by a crew of “Live-In” members. These
members come from all walks of life and include dispatchers, college
students, trade
workers, and career firefighters. To become a Live-In member, there are
a number of requirements and duties that are expected of every
member of the Live-In crew, regardless of age or seniority. Because of
the Live-Ins status and the amount of calls run, the crew is usually
called upon in any number of circumstances to take the lead in training,
fire scenes, and on station.

- Must be accepted for membership with the Franklin Fire Company and must have the recommendation of the
Fire Chief and a Trustee.

- Must obtain training equivalent to Interior Firefighter status within
a reasonable amount of time of moving in.
- Must work at least (1) Bingo a month.
- Must adhere to a cleaning schedule

- Must stay at the firehouse at least 4 nights a week
- Must participate in station fundraisers and activities if available
