Lehigh Valley Rescue is heading to Lehigh County

  • Yocum Towing and Recovery 611 Grammes Lane Allentown, PA, 18104 United States (map)

On September 12th we will be heading to Yocum’s Towing and Recovery for a rescue lab evening. The evening will be broken into a couple of different stations. The goal of the evening is as follows:

  1. Become familiar or to increase your familiarity with Yocum’s capabilities.

  2. Do you know what your neighboring Fire\Rescue Department is carrying on their rescue piece? Now is a good time to figure that out.

  3. Rescue Skills, How good are they? We will have multiple scenarios setup to allow participants to get hands on with either your equipment or your neighbors.

Out on the streets at 3:00am is not the time to determine what your neighbor is carrying, how to use tools or how the Yocum team can assist you. The time is now, to challenge ideas and learn what does and doesn’t work.

This is a free event, but we would appreciate if you can please sign up to give us an idea of how many people will be attending.
