In February and March, the Spanish Peaks/Bon Carbo Fire Protection District hosted a multi-day training session for Fire Departments in Las Animas and Huerfano Counties. S-215, Fire Operations in the Wildland/Urban Interface was a valuable class that taught our Wildland Firefighters skills that will help them better evaluate and fight Wildland fires that threaten subdivisions, towns, and cities.
Taught by CK Morey and instructors from FireWorks911, the class was well attended over all four days, including one grueling ten hour day. Spanish Peaks Volunteer Fire Department, Bon Carbo Volunteer Fire Department, Fisher’s Peak Volunteer Fire Department, Stonewall Volunteer Fire Department, Wet Mountain Volunteer Department, and Hoehne Fire Department were all represented at the training, ensuring that these communities will benefit from better trained firefighters. This class was paid for in part by a Volunteer Fire Assistance Grant.
Students and instructors were fed during training by the Bon Carbo VFD Auxiliary and the Spanish Peaks VFD Auxiliary. Menus included Breakfast Burritos, Sandwiches, Pasta, and Sloppy Joes. No one went away hungry!
