On Saturday March 12, 2022, the south side companies attended a Multi-departmental drill at Bel Alton VFD #10 to review rescue tools and equipment carried on several pieces of apparatus. Volunteer members from Cobb Island, Bel Alton, Newburg, and Dentsville were educated on the different types of equipment that each of the rescue units have. All volunteers appreciated A/C Hoffmaster and Bel Alton officers and members in facilitating these drills and will look forward to more drills in the very near future. In April the plan is to have a tabletop drill that will cover the new Structure Fire SOG.
Attached are a couple of pictures taken during the drill.
