April 21, 2007- A day at the Academy. So, I get a call from my son letting me know they will be spending the day at the North Bend Fire Academy ... and like that isn't cool enough ... family is invited, AND I can bring my camera to catch fire training in action. You don't have to ask twice!!!
Putting faces to the names was a lot of fun, it was even m fun to see new nicknames being earned ... Go "Bubbles"!
Now I could try to tell you what all happened, but not being in the fire service myself ... So how about we let the photos tell the story.
There will be more photos to add to these, so you can see all of them work, struggle, and succeed! Kudos to the staff at North Bend, the Chief's, Captains & all, from Riverside, Buckley, Enumclaw, East Pierce, and Spokane Valley. (Please let me know if I left anyone out.) The instructors were great, and you can see them guiding the recruits in every facet, pushing them to be even better.
All I can say is it was a long day, but one I would not have passed up. Any parent seeing their child progressing in so noble a career field would be proud ... and Bo knows! (Momma so proud!!!)
