Westport Fire Explorers learn about fire service communication through practice

“Last night the Westport Fire Explorers learned about communications in the fire service.

The meeting started off with a lecture from guest speaker, former explorer Lieutenant, Brianna Furtado, who now works with Fall River Police and Fire Dispatch. Then followed up by a brief additional lecture from Captain Keith Nickelson and the night finished up with radio activity.

The explorers were broken up into groups and had to communicate with their officers to try and put a Lego set together. All the explorers saw how important communication can be on the fire ground and in the fire service in general.”-Westport Fire Explorers.
