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

On Monday, September 8th, our department had the unique opportunity to train inside the former Trinka Faustini Funeral Home, an acquired structure generously made available for hands-on practice. Members sharpened their skills with roof and saw operations, ground ladder work, forcible entry, and radio communications.


Real-world emergencies leave no room for hesitation—every second counts. Nights like these ensure that when the call comes, our training takes over. A big thank you to everyone who helped make this valuable drill possible!
