Over the past month, the Sharps Chapel Fire Department has been conducting training exercises on the recently acquired wheeled portable fire pump. The pump was procured by the Norris Shores Homeowners Association and donated to the fire department as a valuable asset for the community. Its primary function will be to combat fires at boat docks, but it also has potential applications in remote firefighting, including wildland fires. The pump is carried on an in-service Engine company for consistent and reliable deployment.
Today, the members showcased the pump’s capabilities to the association at their boat dock. This collaboration between the two organizations exemplifies their commitment to achieving community goals and preparing for potential boat dock incidents. Thank you for your support.
