Redmond Fire & Rescue will be conducting a burn to learn training at 726 SW 23rd St in Redmond on Saturday November 5th.
These types of trainings provide extremely valuable scenarios for firefighters in a controlled environment. Several fires are set, one at a time, for firefighters to enter and practice search and rescue, hose handling, fire behavior, ventilation and various other critical fireground skills.
Roadways in the area will be closed. SW 23rd St will be closed at SW Highland Ave and SW Glacier Ave. Please use an alternate route.
The training exercise is planned to begin at 9am and concluded at approximately 3pm.
Smoke and flames maybe visible during this training exercise.
The public is welcome to watch and take pictures during the event but for your safety we ask that you remain away from the crews unless invited by them.
This building was donated by the landowner for this exercise.
