Training doesn't always require expensive equipment, it requires creativity.

This week, our members sharpened their vehicle stabilization skills using an innovative homemade training prop. By using stabilization airbags to carefully move a golf ball through a wooden maze, crews practiced the precision, communication, and control required during real-world vehicle stabilization and extrication incidents.

Great work by everyone involved for thinking outside the box and finding new ways to train. Continuous training builds confidence and ensures we're ready when our community needs us most.
