3. Treat Others with Dignity, Understanding, and Respect.
4. Leave the Situation Better than the Way you Found it.
5. Help Other Members to be Successful.

The success of our organization is dependent upon the proper mixture of talented, dedicated, and capable personnel, command staff, and board members. This balance is critical to our ability to serve our community in the best possible manner.
