Training on fire hydrants was the topic of the training session for nine members of the Pleasant Grove VFD Tuesday, July 22. Members drove four apparatus to the Big Sandy Elementary School to drill on attaching hoses to fire hydrants. Members also practiced skills such as hose advancement, hose lays and rolling, and pump operating. As Pleasant Grove and Big Sandy departments have a mutual aid agreement, PGVFD is often called into Big Sandy, and other surrounding areas, to assist with emergency calls and being able to properly work available hydrants is essential.
