He feels that, at this time, firefighting best suits him and he is going to take this co-op opportunity to explore this profession.

Tythia Brown Herman High School
Tyitha is taking this opportunity to coop at Windsor Fire & Rescue Services for two reasons:
- Firstly, to spend some time with children teaching fire safety at the Children’s Safety Village. Tyitha understands the importance of teaching the children who will represent our future success or failure. She recognizes the need for respect and patience and can’t wait to gain some teaching experience.
- Secondly, to prove herself as a strong, hardworking young woman capable of becoming a firefighter one day.
“I want to show the girls under me that they too can do anything and I want to be an example for them”.

Steve Anderson Essex High School
Steve Anderson is looking for a career that challenges him both mentally and physically and that contributes to the community. He recognizes that firefighting is not only about fighting fire but also about educating the public on matters of safety.
Steve has firefighting in his blood and is inspired by his uncle and his tales of firefighting and training.
He is truly a team player and feels the job of firefighter would allow him to make a difference in peoples' lives, “whether it be somebody the team rescued or somebody on the team”.
