This past Monday, our volunteers conducted first- and second-due engine company drills at the Skippack Fire Company Training Facility with Engine 66.

Training included deploying crosslay handlines from E66 & completing multiple evolutions in simulated smoke conditions. These drills help ensure that all members are familiar with the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of both the first- & second-due engine companies.

Monday nights are for training and keeping our skills sharp. 🚒 This week, our firefighters focused on Rapid Intervention Team (RIT) procedures and techniques used to locate, access, and remove a trapped or injured firefighter during emergency operations.

We had a great time showing Tanker 66 Wednesday night in KOP at Swedesburg Fire Company’s Fire Prevention Expo. Tanker 66 set up the Port-a-tank for diving demos and supplied water for the hose line for the kid’s fire prop.
