Tending a Stokes basket is hard work. Tending a Stokes basket on the cliffs of the Snake River in Idaho is beyond hard. The Basalt rock of the canyon is rough and jagged with not a single flat spot. Firefighters from Kuna Fire and Nampa Fire Departments rose to the occasion.

Last week we had the honor of hosting OSHA for a Special Government Employee (SGE) class at our Training Center in Baton Rouge. Eleven new SGEs joined the VPP ranks, strengthening the safety community in our region.

Thank you to Christian Arroyo-Torres from OSHA Brian Bailey from FPL, Arlette Allen from Clean Harbors, and our own Chris McGlynn for volunteering their time and experience to lead the class.

Big thanks as well to Senior Chief Brad Warr for taking time out of his schedule to show everyone around the rescue prop.

And a special shout out to Tyler Traweek and Lexi Falcon from HASC LA for providing breakfast and support.

There's a safe way, and a safer way!
