The Huletts Landing Volunteer Fire Company was able to test their new reach and rescue pole recently on the ice on Lake George. It extends from 9 to 60 feet long. Here it is being tested at the Marina.
A simulated ice rescue drill was done recently by the the Huletts Landing Volunteer Fire Department. Below are pictures from the day’s training.
A “person in the water” was dragged toward solid ice.
The fearless volunteer got a bit cold even with his protective gear on.
The “drowning person” was saved successfully.
All in all – a very good training day for our Huletts volunteers.
Many thanks to Fire Chief, Jay VanderPlaat, for coordinating this training as well as all the volunteers who made the day a success.
