Sunday morning members trained on mayday situations and emergencies. Once instruction was over in pairs taking turns converting each persons scba straps into a makeshift harness and being dragged in. After that teams of two carried a member up a small flight of stairs to show how much work it takes to move someone who may be down or injured in a dangerous environment while in gear. Training for the worst can help better prepare members for the unexpected and hopefully something they will never need to use at an emergency.
