Swift Water Training

Jenks Firefighters recently completed Swift Water Training.  Firefighters particapted in 3 days of training that covered Rope Skills & Techniques, Water Dynamics & River Hazards, Medical considerations, and Water Rescue Skills.  Several hours were spent in a classroom setting at Station 2 but most of the class was actual on scene training in the Arkansas River and at Veterans Park. The training was provided by Rescue 3 International and the instructors flew in from Colorado to teach the 3 day class.  Jenks Fire Rescue was awarded a grant several months ago that payed for the training and equipment.  Much more Water Rescue Training is expected in the near future.  More photos are in the photo gallery.
