Firefighters Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPAT) Screening Event Set for this Weekend

April 28, 2025

JAMESTOWN, NY – April 28, 2025 – The City of Jamestown Fire Department will host its Firefighter Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPAT) Screening Event this weekend. The event will take place on Saturday May 3rd , 2025 and Sunday May 4th , 2025, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Northwest Savings Bank Arena, 319 West Third Street, Jamestown.

The CPAT is a nationally recognized, rigorous physical assessment designed specifically for aspiring firefighters. Developed by fire service professionals, the test features eight challenging event stations that evaluate the strength, endurance, and agility necessary for the firefighting profession. Successful completion of the CPAT is an important step in qualifying for firefighter opportunities.

This screening is open to all individuals interested in a firefighting career, whether through volunteer service or paid positions within Chautauqua County.

Participation is free of charge. Candidates must be 17 years of age or older. Those under 18 must provide a signed parental/guardian permission form and waiver of liability. Preregistration is encouraged, but walk-ins will be accepted.

“Anyone thinking about joining their local Volunteer Fire Department or pursuing a career in firefighting is encouraged to come out and experience the physical challenges that are part of this rewarding profession,” said Battalion Chief Shawn Shilling of the City of Jamestown Fire Department.
