This training placed a strong emphasis on coordinated search and rescue operations along with effective fire suppression tactics.

Members worked through realistic scenarios designed to sharpen skills, improve communication, and strengthen teamwork under pressure.

We were proud to have Chief Folks from Louisiana lead the class, bringing valuable experience and knowledge from his department to our members. His instruction provided practical insight into operating efficiently with limited resources while maintaining a high level of service to our communities.

Trainings like this ensure that our personnel remain prepared to protect life and property when it matters most.

Thank you to Chief Folks for sharing his expertise, and to all members who participated and continue to dedicate their time to improving their craft.
