08/30/2017

(KAIR)--The Atchison Fire Department has been selected to host a 2018 regional Kansas State Firefighter’s Association (KSFFA) fire school on August 4-5, 2018. The Atchison Fire Department was notified of the selection by the Kansas State Firefighter’s Association Inc. on August 6, 2017.

The KSFFA fire school is a two-day course that is comprised of both classroom and hands on activities designed to meet or exceed portions of the National Fire Protection Association Standards for the Fire Service. The Atchison Fire Department will offer Fire, Rescue and EMS classes as well as a class related to critical incident stress or post-traumatic stress in order to promote the importance of keeping all emergency crews mentally healthy.

It has been over 20 years since the last fire school was hosted in Atchison. The Atchison FireDepartment is thrilled to be able to host the fire school in 2018 and plans to send out more information to local emergency services at a later date.
