Recently, several TVFD members completed their Nationally Certified Firefighter 1 course. Over 10 weeks, Firefighter Lucas Richardson and Christopher Hackman completed their "Entry Level Firefighter" State and National certification through both the Montgomery County and Chester County Fire Academy. The 180+ hour course provides the training necessary to conduct interior operations at a fire scene. Additionally, students learn to safely and effectively respond to many different types of emergencies including, residential and commercial fires, vehicle fires, brush fires, and hazardous materials incidents.

Congratulations to these individuals for continuing to keep their skills proficient and to better themselves to serve along side their fellow firefighters and the community!!
