Recent Trainings
FARM RESCUE TRAINING, DAY 2
On Sunday, November 16th, 2008, members from Companies 216, 20, and 29 met at Station 216. Once there the instructor's went over a Grain Bin Simulator to show us what happens to a person when they become stuck in a grain bin. We then visited three farms. One was to see a Grain Bin set up, one was so we could practice finding the heat source on the outside of a silo with a TIC and/or a heat gun, and also what to use to drill through the side of a concrete silo, and how to use a digital termometer and a probe to take temperatures inside of a silo. Afterwards we returned to Station 216 to take the final tets and to eat lunch. A special thanks to the Fire Police once again for getting lunch together for class. Also a special thanks to the Penmen's, the Faust's, and the Shoop's for allowing us to visit their farms.

TANKER SHUTTLE/FILL SITE TRAINING
On Monday, September 29th, 2008, members took all 3 trucks into Station 29 for tanker shuttle/fill site training. Members from Halifax, Fisherville, and Caronsville all headed on down to the Halifax Boat Ramp with thier apparatus. Engine 216 first set up on the boat ramp to draft out of the river and fill Tanker 216 and Tanker 29. Both Tankers dropped their dump tanks and then Engine 29-1 set up to draft out of the one dump tank and they set up a siphon operation between the two dump tanks. Engine 19 was a supply Engine and flowed their deck gun, along with Engine 29 and the blitz fire off the back of Engine 29-1. Halfway through, Engine 216 switched roles with Engine 29. Overall everyone learned a lot of different things from the training and look foward to more joint trainings in the future.
PUMP OPS CLASS, DAY 2
Sunday, July 29th, 2008, 7 members again took the Engine and Tanker and made the trip up to the Millersburg Fire Station for Day 2 of the Pump Ops Class. Today consisted of practical sessions with the Engines and pumps. Both pieces, along with Engine 20-1 headed to the parking lot of the Weis Store. Once there, the Engine and Engine 20-1 were hooked up to the hydrant and both units deployed 1-3/4" hand lines with fog nozzles. Everyone took a turn at running the pump and supplying the hand line with the proper pressure. After we were done there, we headed over to Erdmen's Pond on Rising Sun Road and proceeded to set up for drafting operations. Again each person had a turn at pulling a draft and then flowing water through the deck gun. After everyone had their turn, things were cleaned up and everyone headed back to Station 20. Once again the members of the Fisherville Fire Company wish to thank Millersburg for providing us lunch for the day. After lunch, the members returned to Station 216.
