Last Tuesday East Grand Fire put on a training in the Zephyr Mountain Lodge. The Zephyr is one of the largest commercial/residential structures within our district. The training consisted of scenario based stations focused on rescue within a confined stairwell, aerial operations, water supply and fire attack. We would like to thank Winter Park Resort, as well as the owners and managers of the Zephyr Mountain Lodge, for providing us with this training opportunity.

The cool fall weather is the perfect time to knock out a few more wildfire mitagation activities. Last week department members organized and carried out a station clean up day at our new station in Winter Park (The Lonetree Station). This kind of mitagation is not only beneficial to your home but for your neighbors as well if you share close property boundaries.
