On Friday, our Explorers and their advisors headed to the Minnesota State Fair to participate in the Governor’s Fire Prevention Day events. One of the events on this day is the annual Fire Explorer competition. This is comprised of young adults, ages 14-21 from fire departments throughout the region. The competition includes events that test their skills in ladder raising, search and rescue, gear donning, spinal immobilization, CPR & AED, a combat challenge relay, a written test and a public education presentation. This was the first competition this group of Explorers had competed in. They took 5th place out of 12 teams. Please join us in congratualting them!

We will, along with our Fire, Police, Emergency Medical Service, and Emergency Management partners, will be conducting active shooter training at Mariner Middle School in White Bear Lake starting around 8 AM tomorrow, Wednesday, July 15th. While we hope to never have this type of incident take place, it is imperative that we train so that we are better prepared if it does. We anticipate that the training will last until late afternoon. Thank you for your patience for any inconvenience this may cause.
