❓What has OXFR been up to lately?
Well we’re sorry for being quiet on social media, but we certainly have been busy!
🚒Members of OXFR have completed the factory training on Engine 1 (our new mini-pumper). You will see this on the road a lot in the upcoming weeks, while we work on driver training and pumping this truck. Competency on all our equipment is key for everyone’s safety.
✈️OXFR had the pleasure of having a fire prevention table and touch-a-truck section at the Oxford County Airport Annual Fly-In. We gave out lots of materials to families about fire safety, and had many children tour the trucks.
📚Friday evening, Lt. Leeman, Lt. Gardner and Chief Wax-Armstrong attended training at Edgecomb Fire Department for engine company operations.
🛠️Lastly we’ve been very busy working on our EMS Room and Maintenance Rooms. We re-painted walls, thoroughly cleaned, re-organized our equipment and also epoxied the floors. We were able to do this between calls and are very happy with the outcome. We are constantly looking for ways to make our work place safer and easier for members, and these two room updates have made a huge difference in our day to day operations.
We’re looking forward to some upcoming trainings and will make sure we share those with you. As always, call us if you need us!
