The communities they serve, such as Country Lakes
and Golden Beach, are aging, they said, which can bring
its own challenges.
“It’s more risk of fire,” Trowbridge said of dealing
with older homes. “And it means more medical calls.”
Montgomery said: “The people age with the homes.”
Of the approximately 900 calls for service they answer
each year, about 60 percent of them are medical calls,
including motor vehicle accidents.
Fires, Montgomery said, account for the remaining 40
percent of calls.
Both officers said they still need volunteers, though
they have seen an increase in participation the past few
years.
Trowbridge estimated that there were 115 members in
the volunteer company with perhaps 55 to 60 of them
actively answering calls.
The addition of younger volunteers was encouraging,
Montgomery said.
“Some of us are getting old,” he said.
