New Training building
April 16, 2013
Work has begun on the new training building located at the rear of the station. This building was our former carnival stage which we are converting into a training building. When completed the building will offer a roof vent simulator, wall vent simulator, bailout simulator, and forcible entry door. The Department has purchased a smoke simulator for the interior, and a 24X24 concrete pad will be attached for placement of 2 vehicles for Department vehicle rescue trainings. The completion of this building will also allow us a place for ladder trainings,confined space, and search and rescue, along with SCBA trainings.
