Demolition Burn and High Wire Training for Howard County Firefighters
Members of the HCDFRS underwent a series of training exercises this past week.
This week was one of training for Howard County Department of Fire and Rescue firefighters and trainees.
On April 10, the department’s special operations team did high wire training off the I-70 bridge at the Howard/Baltimore County line. On April 8, trainees participated in a demolition burn at a wooded property off of College Avenue in Ellicott City.
The buildings were donated to the fire department by the property owner, according to Battalion Chief Eric Proctor.
