On Friday, we hosted Girl Scouts at our station to learn about the fire department. They also got to see what a firefighter looks like when they're wearing all of their protective gear. If they are ever in an emergency, they now know that there is a person inside all of that scary-looking stuff that is there to help them.

Today, we took delivery of our new extrication tools! We want to give a huge thank you to our community for supporting us. We appreciate the opportunity to replace our aging equipment with tools that will enhance our rescue capabilities for many years to come.
We had members of Boy Scout Troop 348 attend, which is always a great chance for us to share some of the things we do.
We would also like to thank Jim's Garage Inc. for donating the cars we used today.

The Lafayette Professional Firefighters are proud of the hard work, dedication, and commitment these recruits have shown throughout the academy. We look forward to seeing them serve our community with professionalism and pride.

We were also honored to have Tony Murray, President of the Professional Firefighters Union of Indiana, and Vice President Hank Harris in attendance to help celebrate this important milestone.

Congratulations, graduates, and welcome to the brotherhood and sisterhood of the fire service.
