There is hereby established an Auxiliary to the Volunteer Fire Companies
in the Township, to be known as the "Junior Firemen's Auxiliary," and
this Auxiliary shall operate under and pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40A:14-95 through
and including 40A:14-98.
No person shall be eligible for membership in the Junior Firemen's
Auxiliary who is less than 16 or more than 21 years of age. Persons between
the ages of 16 and 21 shall be required to obtain permission to join the Auxiliary
from their parents or guardian. Such permission shall be in writing and acknowledged
or proved in the manner required by law for deeds to real estate to be recorded.
Members of the Auxiliary shall be insured with the same coverage and

The rules and regulations governing the activities of the Junior Firemen's
Auxiliary shall provide for the training of the Auxiliary for eventual membership
in the Volunteer Fire Department of the municipality or fire district or in
any such Volunteer Fire Company or Companies affording fire protection therein
and shall further provide that no junior fireman shall be required to perform
duties which would expose him to the same degree of hazard as a regular member
of a Volunteer Fire Company.
