Our Explorer Post is grateful to the Wisconsin DSPS, Richfield Fire Department, Germantown Wisconsin Fire Department, and Jackson Fire Department for our collaboration in securing this generous grant! This will allow for safety of our youth participating in valuable fire and EMS trainings with adequate gear, increased quality and rigor of our program via building training props, purchasing CPR manikins, and more!

Thank you to the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services for the award of over $22,000 in grant funding for our joint Germantown Fire Explorers - Post 17 program with the Germantown Wisconsin Fire Department and the Jackson Fire Department!

Last Saturday, our Post put our recent vital sign acquisition and patient assessment knowledge together and performed some EMS scenarios. Thank you FF Archibald for being a good sport and taking a recliner to the head for a trauma assessment!

Our Post is excited to enjoy the warm-ish weather this Saturday as we start pulling hose and practice hose movement upstairs at the Jackson Fire Department!
