Wildland Fire Training
St. Elmo-Irvington Volunteer Fire Department and Grand Bay Fire & Rescue held a joint wildland fire training in St. Elmo, Wildland training is so important in our area due to all of the woodland and brush we have!

Ladder Truck & Victim Rescue
One of our neighboring fire departments, Theodore Dawes Fire, invited us to train with them at the local high school recently.
Firefighters practiced gaining roof access for ventilation, rescuing a victim from an upper level, command tactics, communication, and more!
Many thanks to Theodore Dawes Fire for the training opportunity.

Rescue and Roof Saws
Chief McKeever trained firefighters on the use of our K-12 rescue saws and the best techniques for going through walls and roofs.
Frequent practice not only keeps the saws in good working order, but keeps everyone proficient in the care and maintenance of tools.
