If your kids are considering a career as a firefighter, the Southborough Fire Department is putting together a youth firefighter program. Chief Andrew Puntini tells the Community Advocate it will be entirely volunteer-run with career firefighters offering up their time during or after shifts to give hands-on training to students between the ages of 14 and 18. And for those who enjoy and want to pursue it, he hopes to develop some homegrown firefighters. The Chief hopes to have the program running in the fall.
