Fire Safety and Severe Weather Training Trailer

2757 is our Community training trailer.  It is used during fire prevention week at our local schools, at special events such as our fire fest, and also used in neighboring areas for things like the Porter County Fair. 

This trailer is equipped to conduct fire prevention trainings for all ages and also conduct weather safety trainings. Fire prevention equipment include a remote controlled smoke machine that is piped throughout the trailer to add realism to the fire awareness training, a stove with rotating pot to show children the correct position in which the handle is to be when cooking, a phone that is locally linked to the control room so that children can learn how communicate with dispatchers in the event of an emergency, a temperature controlled door to teach children how to feel for heat and why it is important to use the back of your hand, and a window in the rear of the trailer used as emergency egress for the participants at the end of the training.  During the fire prevention training we also take time to talk with participants
