Yesterday Hays Fire Department and Sherman County Rural Fire Technical Rescue team members had our 2nd Annual joint team training hosted this year at the Goodland Fire Training Site. Team members were challenged with a “structural collapse” scenario. Both groups worked hard. Initially “locating” the “victims”. Then working to free them from the rubble. Looking forward to next year!

We want to give a big thank you to Scoular Grain for use of the facility at Caruso.   Was a great night of rope training...
