Firefighters Build Critical Skills in Live Fire Training at New Facility

Posted on March 26, 2025

Last week, our dedicated firefighters took part in a successful live fire training session at our new state-of-the-art training facility. This facility, which opened less than a year ago, provides our firefighters with a controlled environment to develop and refine the critical skills needed for real-life emergencies.

Live fire training is an essential part of firefighter education, exposing crews to realistic fire scenarios while reinforcing safe and effective response techniques. This hands-on experience is crucial in preparing them for the unpredictable nature of emergency situations.

As part of their training, firefighters completed Live Fire 1 & 2, a key step toward obtaining the NFPA 1001 certification, the National Fire Protection Association's standard for professional firefighter qualifications. Achieving this certification is not only a significant milestone in a firefighter’s career but also ensures they meet the highest standards of safety, competence, and professionalism in the field.

We are incredibly proud of our firefighters for their hard work and dedication to keeping our community safe. Their commitment to ongoing training and professional development is what makes our fire department strong and ready to respond when needed.

Please join us in congratulating them on this achievement!
