Station 82 members train twice a month with various training topics covered. Tonight the crew practiced hose line deployment and SCBA confidence. They also practiced emergency egress through a wall to ensure that they have the skills necessary to get out of a room through a wall if needed. A ladder played the role of the wall and members had to go through the ladder rungs.
Several members participated in equine extraction training at the Hope Fire Department in Hope NJ. With a large horse population in the district we incorporate this training to our program so that we can have skills needed in safely dealing with incidents involving large animals.
