Today marks my completion of @CampFFIT! This was such a transformative experience, surrounded not only by amazing mentors, but also aspiring female firefighters (and some really sick equipment—when’s the last time you’ve used a Thermal Imaging Camera?)!

I can't say enough about how much I support and enjoy this program.

Thx to the @OttFire for offering @CampFFIT again this summer to 24 female teenagers interested in fire services as a potential career.
