The Northern Ohio FOOLS started in 2004 in the back yard of one of our founding FOOLS. Since that day, the Northern Ohio FOOLS chapter has grown to over 20 members, and a 12 man Honor Guard. Our mission is to make the job safer through training and sharing info, and never allowing ourselves or our Brother firefighters to forget those Traditions set forth by our forefathers.
We will not waver in our attempts to stop the mindless commercialization of our profession. We are Brothers of Honor, Pride, and Tradition. It is up to us to educate those who do not understand what we are and who we are.
It is not about t-shirts, lightbars, tattoos, or any other useless symbol of who we are, but our dedication and devotion to serve our Brothers, and our citizens.
We will fight the Mutt, and always carry ourselves, and our badges with Pride and Honor.
We are always accepting new members, but we don't need them. You'll be welcomed in, but you will earn the right. Nothing is free, and if you're willing to work, the rewards are great.
If this is you, go to our mission statement and READ IT. If this is still you, fill out a membership application and email it back to us. We'll be in touch..
