The Women’s Fire Service Expo is an all-day event, including some classroom time, but mostly hands-on scenarios. This event is for women who are interested in becoming a firefighter, but would like to "try it out" for a day. After a brief classroom session, participants will work hands-on with local female firefighters to put out fires, cut cars apart, do search and rescue, and other exciting scenarios.
Representatives from the participating departments will also be available to answer questions, and hand out recruiting information to those interested.
