  • The art of extrication

    As part of Junior Firefighter Camp, participants learned what it takes to get someone out of a car when there's been a crash. Firefighter Mark Griffin demonstrated how a hyraulic tool can be used to get a door off a car to safely get a person injured in a crash out of the vehicle. Sixteen 12-year-olds spent the weekend at the camp, learning everything they could about the lives of volunteer firefighters. (Staff photo by Nancy Huddleston)
