Training Seminar at the "Rock"

[MattyJ]

In case anyone is interested there will be a training seminar at the FDNY Training Acdemy, sponsored by the New York Firefighters Burn Center Foundation, on March 3rd 2007 (Saturday). These seminars have a long history of excellance. This years will be just as good. All are welcome....for more information go to the NYFFBCF website:

None of the instructors are paid, all proceeds go to the foundation

How much is it? I looked at the link and did not see anything about an addmission price. Looks like a good class and the money will go to a great foundation.

It's just under a month away. Going to see about making it up there. But, as was asked, what's the cost...and is there a registration process or limit on the number of attendees?

I think it is a nominal donation to the BurnCenter fund the last one was in 2002 or 03 I think and probably asked for $25 or $30 donation...it is more than worth it for many compared to what your departments would pay to see these guys in Indy, AC or hired for a local seminiar.

Usually they also have their artists prints and training videos for sale as well to raise money.

Its a $25.00 donation to get in, and no pre-registration....as FFred said, there will be shirts,videos etc...for sale, lunch included and some great instructors..its usually a great day.

And for 25 bucks you get not only invaluable information, but a taste at what it SMELLS like to be a Probationary Firefighter with the City of New York! :-)

Ahhh the sweet smell of poop!

Its not too bad in the winter though. Glad I didnt go to proby school in the summer!



I went to the one a couple years ago, it was a great class. Good presentations, and like Fred said, much cheaper than having to go to FDIC or one of those things, or have them present in a seminar at your FD. Plus, the money goes to a great cause.
