Today, Your Southern Webster County Fire Protection District teamed up with Logan-Rogersville Fire Protection District to spend the day with the 5th graders at Fordland Elementary School for Career Day!

Students got a hands-on look at the fire service by learning about some of the many duties firefighters perform every day. From using extrication tools to play Jenga, to cutting rebar, the kids were able to safely experience some of the equipment and skills used in emergency situations.

We also talked about teamwork, safety, serving the community, and what it takes to become a firefighter. Thank you to the staff and students for having us — we had a great time sharing what we do and inspiring the next generation! 🚒🔥 Thank you Logan Rogersville Fire Protection District for your teamwork 🙂
