OPPORTUNITY FOR FIREFIGHTERS FROM EMMET AND
SURROUNDING
DEPARTMENTS
March 12,2006
ATTENTION: Emmet County Firefighters, Fire Officers, EMS Providers and Law Enforcement Personnel:
RFC Fire/Rescue , Station 48 is proud to announce the
second annual "Back to Basics: Coordinated Engine and Truck Company
Operations" training program, to take place on May 19,20, and 21,2006.
This program is offered to all firefighters and emergency responders from Emmet
County and surrounding departments.
The instructors for the program are
nationally recognized and accredited experts who will be traveling to Northern
Michigan from Ohio and New York to present both classroom and hands-on training
to include live bum evolutions.
Following the success of last year's training, the
2006 "Back to Basics" class will include two levels. Level 1 will be geared to participants who were unable
to attend last year's sessions, and Level 2 will be geared to students who
completed Level 1 and will include Level 1, but will advance into self-rescue
and bail-out techniques, as well as providing more depth and experience with
some of America's best and most experienced firefighter-instructors.
Participants in this training will
learn the latest firefighting techniques from expert, national-level
instructors. Training is intense and
hands-on under the guidance and supervision of recognized experts.
To participate in
Sunday's live burn training, students must attend the Friday and Saturday sessions.
Sponsorship of the program this year is largely
through a grant received from the Local Revenue Sharing
Board, the Emmet County Firefighters Association and
numerous goods and services provided by local
merchants and citizen support.
Registration deadlines are
important! We want to provide solid training with an acceptable
student-instructor ratio and we want
to have appropriate resources and props. Register early!
Space and participation may be
limited and access to hands-on training will be first come-first served based
on the date your registration is received. We will provide commemorative
tee-shirts to all applicants who register by the deadline BUT,
participation may STILL BE LIMITED to first come., first served.
