On Saturday, May 20, 2026, KVFD Engine and Ladder units traveled to the West Chester Fire Training Center to participate in a live burn training exercise. The event included several practice scenarios focusing on engine arrival assignments.
Firefighters were positioned with minimal staffing and tasked with performing their duties in a controlled environment. The training lasted the majority of the day and provided valuable hands-on experience for all personnel involved.
After the training session, crews were served a catered lunch provided by Lindsay's Lunch Box. KVFD appreciates the support from the stokers and evaluators from Maryland, as well as Lindsay's Lunch Box for the meal.
