RFD #1 Firefighters Participate in Chainsaw Safety Class














Firefighters from Johnson County RFD #1, other fire departments and organizations participated in a chainsaw safety class at Cline Park in Clarksville on August 28th.

Thanks to our instructor, Dana, from New Hampshire, we spent eight hours learning about personal protective equipment when using a chainsaw, safety tips, and the proper way to down trees.

Firefighters A. Williams, Rabalais, Hilton and Assistant Chief Taylor participated in this day long event. It was a great day and we learned a great deal on how to stay safe.
