North Little Rock Citizen's Fire Academy and more!

Our good friend Jack Finnegan just stopped by and dropped off information regarding the upcoming next North Little Rock Citizen's Fire Academy Session scheduled for June 2, through July 7, 2009. Classes will meet at the North Little Rock Training Building, at 2400 Willow Street for the first meeting. The remainder of the classes will be held at the Training Building located at the North Little Rock Airport.

Having gone through the citizens academy, I would strongly encourage you to consider it. The classes are very informative and fun! This class provides an overview of the North Little Rock Fire Department. It also has a lot of "hands-on" (such as putting on turnouts and air tanks, going up in the ladder truck, and much, much more! The curriculum and teaching methods are similar to the traditional fire academy.

So don't delay...call 501-340-5377 today for more information on or before May 22, 2009. Space is limited!
