Fire Exploring is a hands-on program implemented through local Boy Scouts of America councils. It is open to young men and women from 14 to 18 years old and each explorer may remain with the program until the age of 21.
This program is designed to allow youth to explore the profession of firefighting. The La Vergne explorers will have the opportunity to learn the basic skills needed to become a firefighter including the advanced technical skill also taught to fire personnel.
Once minimum qualifications have been met La Vergne fire explorers will have the opportunity to conduct ride alongs and assist fire personnel on emergency calls.
