Recruit Training Class #27 – Live Fire Training / Graduation (Photo’s by Firefighter, Steve Falconer) - April 24, 2021

Our new Recruits last training class was a good one – Live Fire Training.  Crews practiced live fires on the first and second floors of the training building.  Each new firefighter got a chance to operate the different positions of a structural entry team, practicing nozzle patterns and positive pressure ventilation.  Firefighters also practiced extinguishing vehicle and dumpster fires.  It was a long day, but a tremendous amount of experience was gained that will help these new Firefighters transition into a great CFD career.  After the morning practical, it was on to graduation….  Family and friends attended to witness that special moment when titles change from Recruit to FIREFIGHTER! The ceremony included speeches by Selectwomen Sarah Hewins, Town Administrator Rick LaFond, Deputy Germaine, Assistant Deputy Boyle and Chief Weston. Official Department Badges, Accountability ID’s and Graduation Certificates were presented.  This was a day to remember. Please join me in welcoming our newest Carver Firefighters in the Class of 2021. (Photo’s by Firefighter, Steve Falconer)
