With 29 members, the OVC and the Briarcliff Explorers got some real life experience in a training house, thanks to the Millwood Fire Dept. Members conducted search and rescue with obstacles such as wall breaches and reduced profiling while in smoked out conditions. #OVC

Donning drills brought us right into a mask confidence maze. The OVC met on August 27th. Members practiced putting gear on in under 2 minutes then going on air and becoming comfortable with a mask on. Training starts from the basics and works it’s way through the toughest jobs.

The OFD Venturing Crew met at AMD tonight for their training. The crew did an amazing job on the hydrant and hose line operations. They practiced opening a hydrant, learned the color coding system of our hydrants as well as hitting a target with the trash line off Monitor Hose.
