We brought on 7 new firefighters. They were put through a 2 week on boarding training in which they went over EMS, fire groups operations, search and rescue, water rescue, and ended with a life Fire training drill. They will now move into field training for several shifts to get used to station life and normal operations!

Meet your firefighter Friday! This is Colby Del Carlo. He got started in the fire service because he wanted a career where he could help people and be part of something bigger than himself. Being able to serve the community around Lake Almanor while constantly learning and growing has made this job incredibly rewarding. He really enjoys golfing, and spending time with his friends and family. One of the things he loves most about working for Peninsula Fire Protection Distrist is the natural beauty of the Lake Almanor area as well as the supportive community that surrounds it.
