Teamwork, Training, and Thanks!
Our dive team hit the water today for a vital training session focused on sharpening skills and improving readiness for real-world emergencies. Training exercises included:
Executing coordinated search patterns
Proper use of lift bags
Handling diver emergency scenarios
This kind of hands-on, in-water training is essential to keeping our divers sharp, safe, and ready when seconds count.
We’re incredibly grateful to our neighboring departments for their support:
🚒 Thank you to Fontana Fire & Rescue and Williams Bay Fire Department for joining us out on the lake. Your teamwork and collaboration make all the difference.
🚑 Special thanks to Whitewater Fire & EMS for standing by with an ambulance, performing our divers’ pre- and post-dive medical checks, and helping us load and unload equipment — your support ensures our divers stay safe and cared for.
Training like this strengthens not only our skills but also the bonds between departments. We’re proud to serve alongside such dedicated and professional teams.
