Huron Pines is hosting a fire field day training. This training completes the fire certification for those who have completed the prerequisite coursework. Participants will gain hands-on firefighting skills, including tool use, a work capacity test (pack test), and shelter deployment.
Prior to the field day, coursework will need to be completed. Prerequisites of five online training courses are required to attend the field day (S-130, S-190, ICS-100, L-180, IS-700). These courses will take approximately 40 hours and are free to complete online through NWCG (find guidance here). Certificates will be awarded after the completion of each course and will need to be saved and sent to Huron Pines prior to participating in the field day.
Capacity is limited to 25 participants, and registration must be completed by May 10.
Cost to participate is $50 and will include lunch and refreshments.
More information will be provided to registrants closer to the field day. If you have any questions, please contact Huron Pines Restoration Specialist Abby Macek at abigailm@huronpines.org or 989-448-2293 x-24.
