INTERNATIONAL FIREFIGHTER'S DAY MAY 4TH

Thank You Chester Heights Fire Company

LIVE BURN TRAINING

Chester Heights Fire Company demonstrated its commitment to excellence by participating in live fire training at the West Chester Training Center on April 27th. Inside the "burn" building, they skillfully navigated through simulated interior fire conditions created by burning pallets and hay. The dedication of these volunteers was on full display as council members were given the opportunity to witness their expertise firsthand. Such initiatives not only showcase the professionalism and preparedness of our fire company but also serve as an inspiring reminder of the selfless service they provide to ensure the safety and well-being of our residents.
