Your chances of being judged by a hawk are low, but never zero…

Well, this is hawkward. How about some red-tailed hawk facts?

Rope Technician training continues. Today, C Shift members worked through multiple scenarios, including removing injured hikers from ledges and hanging pickoffs. Made possible by @FEMAGrants and @RaggedMtnFdn

[Southington Fire Department @SouthingtonFD]

Members kicking off technical rope rescue training this week. Nearly 250 hours will be committed over the next month to greatly increase the departments ability to respond to high angle rescues.

[Southington Fire Department @SouthingtonFD]

Many thanks go out to the generous folks at the @RaggedMtnFdn for donating thousands of dollars worth of rope rescue harnesses and hardware to the department. We value a renewed partnership with a dedicated group of people that preserve and climb the unique cliffs in Southington.

@SouthingtonFD @Record_Journal @TheBristolPress @SenBlumenthal Congrats! Well deserved SFD.

[Southington Fire Department @SouthingtonFD]

The training program will greatly extend the capabilities of the Southington Fire Department and provide dozens of department members the highly technical skills and abilities to perform complex rope rescues throughout the area. @Record_Journal @TheBristolPress @SenBlumenthal

[Southington Fire Department @SouthingtonFD]

The Southington Fire Department was recently awarded over $165,000 by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Program to establish an operational and technical rope rescue training program.
