The McAdoo Fire Company held Fire Prevention at a few places this year McAdoo Catholic, McAdoo Elementary and the Cub Scouts troop which was held at St Kundagaundas hall. The members of the fire company taught kids about the importance of smoke alarms, stop drop and roll, pre plan with family, the importance of 911, and alot more. We hope everyone learned something and use this useful information in the future if needed. Thank you from the Cub Scouts My name is Diana Zajac and I am the Cubmaster for Cub Scout Pack 643 based here in McAdoo. At our October Pack meeting on Monday, Oct. 5th, many members of the McAdoo Fire Company, including my son Allan, were kind enough to accept a very last-minute invitation to speak to our scouts about fire safety. Bobby Leshko's talk with the boys about how they can be safe, the juniors demonstrating how a firefighter in bunker gear is not scary, the ride on the ladder truck. What a night! Our scouts have been talking about it ever since and want to know when we can do it again. I wanted to take this opportunity to pass along my heartfelt thanks and the appreciation of our leadership and the scout parents for taking the time to join us for the evening. It was interesting and exciting for the scouts in so many ways and now they all want to be firefighters, just like the people at McAdoo Fire Co. I can't think of better role models. I would greatly appreciate having this passed on to the members who gave us their time and shared their knowledge and expertise with the boys. They truly had a wonderful time. Thank you so very much again. Diana Zajac

The companies had 1 hour presentation on the Pak Tracker device at the City's Southside Station. Then everyone headed up to Holy Trinity located on Wyoming street for practical training. Crews filled the building with fake smoke and searched for downed firefighters. Crews located the down firefighters with the Pak Tracker device and thermal imaging cameras. There were about 35 firefighters from the 3 companies that attended the training class. The Pak tracker device is a receiver that picks up a signal from a transmitter which is located on the SCBA. This device was purchased along with Scott airpacks thru a grant.
