On October 21, Randolph-Hampton Fire District joined forces with Cannon Falls Fire and Rescue to tackle one of the most challenging situations in firefighting—the dreaded Mayday call. Our dedicated teams practiced essential survival techniques to ensure we're always prepared for the unexpected.
Key Skills Covered:
Mayday Procedures
Rapid Intervention Team (RIT) Procedures
Wall Breaching Techniques
Low Visibility Search and Rescue using Thermal Imagery Cameras
A big thank you to St. Mary's Catholic Church, New Trier, MN & the Tri Parish Community for allowing us to train in their soon to be demolished convent building. Real-world environments are invaluable to our training efforts, and having access to such a structure is a rare and crucial opportunity.
We'll continue to use this location for training over the coming months, culminating in a controlled burn in early 2025.
Stay safe and stay ready!
