Undercliff VFC Rescue Day 2024
We would like to take a moment to thank the 20 members and helpers for giving up their Saturday to take part in the 2024 Undercliff VFC “Rescue Day” training! This day was a full day of training dedicated to various aspects of rescue. Lots of planning and preparation went into making this day possible and we would like to thank all those for making it possible!
Members started their day 7:30 AM and wrapped up around 6:00 PM after completing 5 rescue evolutions (and a couple actual fire calls in between). These evolutions were dispatched as real calls and were incidents ranging from vehicle accidents with patients trapped, to physical rescue, and search details needing rope rescue. OUTSTANDING job to all those who participated in this training day! Everyone worked extremely hard and there was such great teamwork displayed all day! It was great to hear the discussions and conversations throughout the day as crews worked through each scenario.
Trainings like this are vital for our members to stay sharp in their skills so we can be ready to assist in the event of a real emergency. They also build the camaraderie amongst members that we are very proud of. We are very pleased with how the day went and are already looking forward to Rescue Day 2025! Thank you to all our members for your continued dedication to be better and provide the best service possible to our community! That is and has always been our mission which is, To provide our residents, businesses, and visitors with the first class fire and rescue services they deserve. Great job all! Keep up the great work!
