Yesterday, @MeddersKendall represented @KFDexplorers and @eastTNscouts in @nashville_city as she joined 5 scouts from across the state for the Boy Scouts Report To The State. They toured the Country Music HOF, the capitol building and spoke on the state house and senate floors!

Once the burn cell was ignited, the kids got ro see just how fast a fire can spread, and watch as it advances through the 4 phases of fire.

It's LIVE BURN day!!!! But first, before we go outside, @KnoxvilleFire Battalion Chief Lampkin teaches us about basic fire behavior.

[Knoxville Police TN @Knoxville_PD]

A big thanks to the Knoxville Fire Department for assisting us in exiting a home after Officers climbed inside to search for burglary suspects. And before you ask... all the doors had deadbolts on both sides. It’s Easter Day Teamwork at it’s finest.

[Knoxville Police TN @Knoxville_PD]

Today is Earth Day and a perfect time to remind everyone that littering is not only gross, it’s illegal. Whether it’s a cigarette butt at a red light or a tire down an embankment, don’t do it. Always do the right thing and properly dispose of or recycle your trash.

While on a fire alarm in the #oldcity, @KnoxvilleFire's Engine 1, Engine 2, and Ladder 1 crews made a new friend. Meet Lebowski!!! He's going to bring his owner to the firehall soon to take more pics. 👨‍🚒🐅

Training drill yesterday. Explorer Chief Emory Chamberlain helping a new member with the self locking twin donut roll (hotel roll). With the hotel roll, we can throw it over our shoulder while we carry other tools to the upper levels of a high-rise structure.
