Hearthstone High School Students Give Back to the Community

Written by: Sierra Fleming


Three of Hearthstone’s high school students, John Casper, Josh Casper and Julian Bauchspies joined the Sperryville Rescue Squad in the winter of 2010. The three said, “Joining has given us a higher sense of purpose”. John joined after being inspired by his uncle who had previously worked in fire and rescue. Julian and Josh joined to give back to the community and for a good lifetime experience. To join the rescue squad they all had to pass a CPR class which allows them to participate in writing information on the patient and helping superiors on scene. John shared that “I like the excitement and adrenalin rush that I feel when leaving the station on a call”. This amazing experience has motivated Josh and John to go into fire fighting and Julian to become a paramedic and continue rescue as a profession.
