Description
Fire Service Exploring is a program offered by Learning for Life that introduces major aspects of the fire service to young adults ages 15-21, or in the ninth grade. Once enough training has been acquired, Explorers can be allowed on actual fire/medical calls under certain conditions such as, but not limited to:
-
- Explorers cannot enter a structure unless deemed stable and secure.
- Explorers man only enter a structure fire after the initial attack, and search.
Certain local, state, and federal laws as well as National BSA Regulations restrict the duties an Explorer can perform on a fire ground, a medical call, or motor vehicle accident.
