Perkiomen Conducts Live Burn Training at Skippack Fire Company

This article is a direct street report from our correspondent and has not been edited by the 1st Responder newsroom.


Perkiomen Twp Fire Company (Montgomery County, PA) volunteers spent the evening of July 20th at Skippack Fire Company’s training facility working in real smoke, fire, and heat conditions inside a controlled environment.

The focus: search and rescue, hose handling, fire suppression, air pack and mask use, tool operations, building entry and exit, communication, teamwork, and coordination.

Hands-on training like this strengthens our readiness, reinforces best practices, and builds confidence on every call.

Thank you to Skippack Fire Company for the use of their facility.
