Engine Company Operations - 32 hours

This 32 hour class is all hose and water. We cover different hose loads, hose packs, and many different hose lays. Students must come prepared to pack hose, and be motivated to get involved in all aspects of the hose line. We show tips on how we can move hose easier and quicker.

 

Truck Company Operations - 32 hours

This 32 hour class is all truck work. We believe hands on is the best way to learn truck work, so that’s what you get. There are many functions of the truck and there are never enough people around to do it. It takes a special person to be a “Truckie”; we hope we can put a little of the “Truckie” attitude in you when you’re done with this class.

This is our signature class. This is an advanced class with advanced techniques. Fun times and an education will be had by all. All we are going to say is there is engine work. Truck work. And burn time at the end.
