INDIANA COUNTY, Pa. (EYT) – Area volunteer fire departments celebrated several of their volunteers for the completion of the Essentials of Firefighting Course, culminating in a “burn” at the Indiana County Fire Academy.

In an April 29th Facebook post New Bethlehem Fire Company #1 congratulated the class, saying, “Everyone did an amazing job, and thank you to all the supervisors and instructors who made today possible, along with all the instructors who have made in appearance to help each firefighter with their skills along the way.”

According to New Bethlehem Fire Company’s Chief, Barry Fox, the class started with about 25 people. Ten finished all four modules.
