| Over the past two days, several members from Amherst County emergency response agencies attended the USNWC Swiftwater and Flood Rescue Technician course. This training is designed for rescue professionals aiming to become technicians in swiftwater and flood rescue operations.
The course took place in Charlotte, North Carolina, at the U.S. National Whitewater Center. Monelison firefighter Jeff Hilty commented, "Great time with great people, and I even got to meet some incredible new people. Thank you to all the instructors."
Across Amherst County, responders are continually training and expanding their skills to provide the highest level of service to visitors, businesses, and residents. This recent training is another example of teamwork and the successful collaboration of multiple agencies working toward a shared goal. |
