Northampton: Fire cadet camp set for July 8-12

Northampton Fire Department will be hosting its second annual Northampton Fire Cadet Camp. Camp will be held 8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. July 8-12, with a graduation ceremony July 13, at the station, 4 Lerchenmiller Drive.

The idea of the camp is to help young adults, ages 12-15, learn what a firefighter does. There will be scheduled events throughout each day that will include hands-on training, team building and more.

There is a cost for the camp. Maximum capacity is 20 students.

For an application or more information, email Barry Frantz, safety officer and camp director, at NFD42Camp@northamptonfire42.com. Applications can also be picked up 6-8 p.m. Mondays at the fire station or during work hours at borough hall.
