On behalf of the Nebraska State Volunteer Firefighter’s
Association and Fire School Committee, I would like to
extend a special welcome to our 71st Annual
Fire School.
Sponsoring groups have worked very hard to provide many
training opportunities. The school is once again being
held at various sites in the City of Grand Island.
Class confirmation packets picked up at fire school will
provide the location of each student’s class.
The Nebraska State Fire School is an exciting time and
one of the great achievements of the NSVFA. The school
is an avenue through which all departments can continue
to build and strengthen their programs.
This year’s school will consist of 30 classes of 12
hours in all phases of firemanship, fire investigation,
rescue and fire safety and fire prevention and a 6 hour
cadet class on Saturday, May 17th. Some of the classes,
because of their nature, will have limited numbers in
the classes. Using the pre-registration form will
ensure you have a better chance of being able to take
the class of your choice. It is also suggested that
department members attend different classes so that the
knowledge taken home will span a variety of educational
concepts.
Everyone is invited to attend the school’s opening
ceremony held Friday, May 16th, beginning at
9:00am where announcements pertaining to Fire School are
made and awards announced.
The Fire School Committee extends its deepest gratitude
to all who are providing their time, effort and monetary
support to make the 71st Annual Nebraska
State Fire School a reality. We look forward to many
participating and reaping the benefits of this
experience.
