Onto the engine they go...

CVFD Recruit Firefighters Ben Sorensen and Jack Baber have joined the ranks of the CVFD's Ride List by completing their indoctrination training. Here are some pics of the guys climbing Truck 106's 100-foot aerial ladder and finishing up their Indoc Final Exam. All photos by Falls Church VFD R/FF Charles Fray.







Indoc Class X also took a group photo in front of The Pumpkin, the Arlington-Falls Church Volunteer Rescue Squad's Ambulance. CVFD members are Ben Sorensen (front row, second from left) and Jack Baber (front row, right).

CVFD Ice cream Social was a huge success!

Thanks to all the folks who stopped by our September 10th Ice Cream Social. We had a great turnout for an event that wasn't widely publicized. The kids enjoyed the ice cream, school supplies and a chance to see the fire engine.

Don't forget about our Fire Prevention Week Open House to be held on Saturday, October 14 from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Again the fire station will be open for visitors. This is a great time to come out and say hello again. We will have several trucks there as well as food and games. I know both the volunteer and career firefighters would love for you to visit.
