ESF crews will be conducting training in the area of YAPOAH Terrace today. Firefighters will be working on high-rise fire response. Our crews’ abilities to operate on large buildings led to the successful extinguishment of the Valley River Inn fire.
ESF is hosting Nozzle Forward training to firefighters from across Oregon and Washington. It’s been a great chance for our firefighters to perfect their craft!
Our crews look for opportunities to recruit new members. Here you see a couple of @EugenePolice Officers living their best life. Seriously, we appreciate the support they provide every day!
ESF crews recently went through hours of rigorous training, focusing on one of the most important skills a firefighter can have…rescuing their own.
Thank you to 4J School District for use of Camas Ridge! #firefightersafetyandsurvival@4Jschools
