Where firefighters come to talk training

Middle-TN FOOLS RIT Training - Nashville - January 31 and February 1

We will start at 0800 hrs on both days. Greg promises we will finish up early enough on Sunday to not disrupt any Super Bowl related activities. We will have smoke machines, PVVFD's air trailer to fill bottles, and lunch will be provided. There will be opportunities to breach, cut, perform FF rescue techniques in limited visibility, and the list goes on and on. It will be a great opportunity for all of us.

Please bring SCBA, full turnout gear, any related tools (if you can) and a positive attitude!

You don't have to be a FOOL to attend!

Will SCBA's be avail to use? We will have about 4 people going from PCFD and the Chief's are a little hesitant about sending the units out to a training event no sponsored by them.

Thanks!

Hey, Brother! Glad to hear you're coming. I talked to President Nelms earlier today and he anticipates having 4-6 packs available for general use, if needed. Unfotunately, your problem isn't unique to PutCo. It's getting harder and harder to get equipment for training these days. Too many lawyers, perhaps...
