In the Fire Explorers we work together to acheive a common goal. Our main goal is to teach skills and educate the Explorer Cadets while having fun.
The Explorers attend events hosted by the City of SeaTac and other agencies. We set up security for the International Festival held every year at SeaTac's Angle Lake Park. This is just one of the many events we participate in. We also attend many public events to encourage Public Fire Safety Education. We also provide First Aid Triage at these events.
You will learn basic skills in order to become a successful firefighter. These skills include but are not limited to:
-
Putting on gear under one minute
-
Putting on the Self Contained Breathing Apparatus
-
Perform Search and Rescue Operations
-
Hydrant and Hose Work
-
Life Lessons
-
