Ashland, MA - All members of the Ashland Fire Department successfully completed their annual live burn training at the Chief Roger G. Belhumeur Regional Training Facility in Auburn.


The Auburn Fire Rescue Department’s state-of-the-art complex includes both indoor and outdoor classrooms, a four-story burn tower, and multiple specialized props that provide realistic training scenarios — such as basement fires, roof ventilation, technical rescues, search and rescue operations, and wall breach exercises.


This intensive, hands-on training helps Ashland firefighters enhance their operational skills, practice safety under realistic conditions, and maintain readiness to protect the Ashland community.


The department extended its appreciation to the Auburn Fire Rescue Department for hosting and maintaining such an outstanding training facility.
