EMERGENCY ESCAPE SYSTEM REFRESHER TRAINING AT WASHINGTON ENGINE

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

AND TODAY AT WASHINGTON ENGINE FIREHOUSE: Today, 15 members - from all 5 of our Fire Companies - are completing their annual Emergency Escape System refresher training at Washington Engine Firehouse. This training, and the equipment carried by each of these members, is required of all Structural Firefighters in our Department. It provides each of these members with a 50’ piece of rope and a mechanical control device so they can safely descend out of a window in the event fire conditions in a building become too dangerous and no other way out is feasible. As we regularly do, this training is being provided by our friends and instructional experts from AAA Emergency Supply. SEE MORE HERE.
