Structure Burn Class - Berkeley Hills Fire Department (5/21/05)

The members of Berkeley Hills Fire Department along with members of the Etna, Peebles, Elfinwild, and Evergreen Fire Departments conducted a Structure Burn Class at a donated house on Sangree Road.  Tuesday and Thursday nights were spent in a lecture and a prep class before the burn on Saturday.  Work was done throughout the week at the house to get it ready to go for Burn Day.  During the Burn Groups of 4 students rotated through 8 different fireground functions including Engine Co. Ops, Truck Co. Ops, Command, RIT, etc,  so everyone got a chance to do a little bit of everything.  After the final rotation of students, master stream operations were set up and the house was burned to the ground as part of the training.  A great time was had by all.  Thanks to all who participated, the Instructors and also to those organizations and businesses that helped make this happen.
