The Superior Fire Department had its turn to practice on the old Manning Motel today after the Superior and Douglas County SWAT teams used it yesterday.
The crews began the first of three days training, as new and former firefighters practiced rescue scenarios.
Firefighters were eager to have a flat roof to train on, which they don’t encounter often.
They are also working on driver training focusing on how to get water supply to an area with no hydrants around.
“We have three different shifts, all three shifts will get to use this building, which is another unique thing too, a lot of times if we get a smaller place donated, it gets beat up on the first day, and then we don’t have much left of it, so this gives us a lot of exposure,” Joe Tribbey, a Captain at the Superior Fire Department said.
