NARRATIVE: Two timely items of interest for the media:


*Today from 1330 - 1600 the SFD/SVFD recruits from class 2008-1 will be training on homes scheduled for demolition near the intersection of Hamilton and Desmet. There will be video opportunities of the new recruits working with City Ladder Companies learning truck work.


*This coming weekend on Saturday February 23, the SFD members participating in the 17th Annual Scott Firefighter Stairclimb will be demonstrating Firefighting gear and eliciting the publics' support. From 11am - 2pm Spokane Firefighters will be on hand in the Northtown Mall with a stair step machine from Liberty Lake Athletic Club. This is a great opportunity for the public to meet the Firefighters, learn about the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and actually WEAR structural firefighting gear and see what it is like climbing the stairs with the entire fire department ensemble on. I am encouraging everyone to come out and give it a try and support these Firefighters as they rally for a great cause!

For information regarding the climbing event, contact Jason 208-640-4240 directly
