Just a reminder that tonight is the graduation and competition tonight. The Academy will begin at regular time, but will probably end around 7:30 PM after the competitions have finished. This way everyone can enjoy one of their last Friday nights before school starts!
We will have to keep a close eye on the weather throughout the evening, though.

Class 5: Night 4
Last night the recruits met with the investigators from the Ocean County Fire Marshals Office and Ocean County Prosecutors Office to learn how an investigation takes place at the scene of a fire. They interviewed the ‘homeowners’ of our lost building from Wednesday and worked to determine the origin of the fire and a likely cause.
Recruits then did practice runs at the two competition areas they will run tonight at our final meeting.
The first was a full scale structure fire response. Crew had to force the door to enter the building, suppress fire on the first and second floors, ladder the building on two sides, and rescue a victim inside. Amazingly, all three battalions completed this in less than 2.5 minutes! Battalion 2 were the winners from last night’s challenge. We’ll see tonight if they can hold onto that!
The second competition involved attacking a vehicle fire, throwing ladders, and climbing to the 5th story of the drill tower using the exterior stairs. Battalion 1 took that win.
We’ll see everyone tonight for our final, and shortened, night: Graduation and Competitions!
