After nearly a year of pandemic precautions, the Green Valley Fire Corps â the volunteer arm of the Green Valley Fire District â is slowly restarting their services this week, beginning with the popular smoke alarm and battery replacement program.
Faced with limited personal protective equipment during the COVID-19 outbreak, the GVFD decided to temporarily pause GV Fire Corps services last April to protect the community and its volunteers.
But with new safety measures in place, and a backlog of service calls to get through, GVFD Fire Chief Chuck Wunder said many GV Fire Corps volunteers are eager to get back to doing what they love: helping their community.
