Presenting the newest members of the CHSFA - The Hose Family

The Hose Family
Lieutenants Johnny Tucker and Mehi Carruth welcome the Hose family to the CHSFA and explain the roles that they will play to them.

The construction continues - Getting Ready To Get Ready


With this blog post, we want to share with you the newest members of the CHS Fire Academy, The Hose Family.

The adult male is named Hose, The adult female is Hosanna, and the Child is named Hoo-Rah.


These three new members are Training Aids or Props that never complain, whine, or act immature. They always remain silent even though one is a toddler and is in diapers. They do not ask for food or drink and always remain in a state of unconcious oblivion. They are also impervious to pain, which should serve them well.



They were constructed from old Fire Hose and 6"x 6" and 4"x 4" lumber blocks and fastened together with screws. The arms and legs are life-like and bendable.


They are the first of many projects that the Level 1,2, and next year's level 3 classes will construct as we go forward with the CHS Fire Academy. Next semester we plan on rescuing them with ladders. For now, they will be rescued on a regular basis using search tactics in full turnout gear and blacked out face masks or flash hoods turned backwards.
