The training continues on Monday February 1st, 2010 during our weekly drill night. The subject of tonight's drill was Ladders and Ventilation. Firefighter Zwick was in charge of tonight's training and utilized various pieces of equipment from Engine 31-2.

In addition firefighters ascended ladders, carried ladders and went to the roof to demonstrate vertical ventilation.

Thank you to all for participating in yet another successful training session.
