The Lavallette First Aid Squad is in need of new members, as the pressure on current volunteers increases.

“It’s getting a little tough in both the winter and the summer,” said David Finter, a member of the squad who is also a borough council member.

Finter said the squad provides free training to new members, plus the opportunity to serve one’s community and save lives. No experience is necessary, as all of the training is provided.
