Going into the open house tomorrow morning I thought I would take a stab a setting the plan to see how well it actually come to fruition. I guess being out of the country four consecutive days prior and not attending the final staff meeting did not help but I think it is come together.
11:00 New Crash/Engine 12 – we have a brand spanking new engine that is ‘officially’ going into service at 11:00 as our Mayor cuts the ribbon.
11:15 we’ll demo auto extrication
11:45 we’ll begin to prepare for a vehicle fire. The thick black smoke usually gets the attention of the crowd.
12:30 the EPPD will demo their police dogs
1:30 will be the second auto extrication
2:00 being the final vehicle fire
In between the events there are a number of other demonstrations and things to see & do including:
Kid Photo in gear
Kitchen Fire Demo—what can happen with hot oil/grease fires
Safety Trailer – how smoke behaves in a room
Sprinkler Trailer – How sprinkler systems can help suppress room/content fires.
Technical Rescue – Demo of neighboring technical rescue
Show/Tell:
• LifeLink Helicopter
• HCMC Ambulance
• Technical Rescue Trailer
• Engine
• Tower
• Crash
• Rescue
• Police Car
Plus free treats & goodies including cookies, bars, hotdogs, popcorn, t-shirts and more……
Hopefully it goes like clockwork. Although the weather forecast is calling for high 30’s and snow the crowd might not be as large as years past.
