Ice Rescue Training
On Sunday 1/31/10 we held a cold water and ice rescue training on Ashland Pond. Norwich Dive Team provided the instructors. Instructors were Chief Tim Jenks and Tom Ladd from Taftville FD and Scott Ellis from Yantic FD. We trained on rescue techniques and rescuing victims with an ice sled. Also, about safety issues that may arise during a rescue. Everyone showed great team work and we would like to make this a yearly training. Griswold Ambulance also participated and assisted with obtaining vitals and warming the firefighters after being in the water.
