Ice/Cold Water Rescue Drill
By Firefighter Mike Harris
January 20, 2015
This week's drill took advantage of the recent freezing temperatures for Members to practice ice rescues and safety on the ice this time of year. Members set up at the Lewisboro Town Park to create a mock scene of both an active and a passive victim in the water. Both the victim and the rescuers donned dry suits. Various rescue techniques were simulated, maintaining the skills of our firefighters. If you are interested in taking part in drills like this and being a part of the Department, be sure to stop by any Monday night between 7 - 9 PM and ask for a Member of the Membership Committee, or email BecomeAMember@southsalemfire.com, to find out more!
