Government Meeting Experience
The first meeting I went to was girl state and boy state. There were two girl and two boys that came to talk. Some brought poster, objects that they made while there, and others just came and talked. The meeting was for the people that sent them to girl/boy state. They were able to invite their family and friends all together there were about 20 people. The girls and boys talked about there experience and what they learned. The different roles in the government they played. Each state they you were put into had different thing to offer. Some held government roles part of the court, newspaper, and more. These are only a few examples of the possibility that there are when you go to state
I went to a meeting at the firehouse and they talked about how they do regular checks to the trucks, holes, and uniforms. They went through and made sure the fire hydrants and full and accessible. At This meeting about 30 people attended it. They talked about all the different ways they can help people, with truck and boats. Each person gets assigned to each boat or truck. After every call they go to they and to debrief after. They did a practice drill and showed us how they have to act quickly and calmly to get everything ready, and afterwards they did a debrief.

At first they were talking about fundraising for the CV Starr. Soon after they started I could tell the lake of planning and communication there was about the topic. This is because they started of with how to fundraise then switched to how CV Starr is trying to put more money than they would get out of it. That CV Starr wants to build on an addition and the plans that they submitted were incorrect. After going to this meeting it showed me why it takes so long to get something done in town.

    City Council Meeting Research Paper

    The council meeting began and I was immediately was struck by the many different individuals in attendance from all walks of life. While almost everyone in the building was there for a specific reason or issue, there was one tie to everyone: Money and the local economy. The Firefighters from the city of Huntsville were in attendance protesting the projected budget and their cut of that. A worker from the Mental Hospital in Huntsville gave a very logical plea to the Council about that funding of the mental institution. Many issues made…

    Also, that is why the training and guidelines/procedures are so strict. Firefighter training and academy mimics how the military trains our soldiers. How tough and strict they are about every little detail and especially safety. The training physically and mentally is one of the most challenging things you will have to endure. From the physical work out every day to the mental studies you have to do and the practices you have to learn to keep with the times. Especially, on your probationary period, this is a big factor, you have to be the one doing anything and everything perfectly. However, once you become a firefighter and off probationary, you still don’t stop evolving. Although, there is nothing more rewarding, from the great pay, benefits and retirement plan. Also, knowing that you can help the community and civilians around you, knowing that you can protect them and help them if needed. Firefighting g is a full-time job even when you’re off the clock. You are always being looked at and you always might need to step in and help someone. This is the main reason why this is a challenging job, it never…

    My RCS Capstone Experience challenged me by forcing me to speak infront of a large group of people, who have had more years of experience than I have. Also a physical challenge for I had to develope my upper body strength for the training I had to endure. Both of these things pushed me out of my confort zone, but in the long run I know they will be valuable skills for the future. I have been a volunteer at Jacobs Creek Fire Department for three years, but even with these years there is still always room for improvement. This topic is important to me because the people in my station are like family to me. I know even on my worst of days that they will always have your back. In addition being in the fire department brought me and my dad closer,…

    Firefighter Observation Report

    As a firefighter i would respond to many different types of calls. I would run on DV call to fire calls. On the EMT calls i would just be there as extra hands if they need them. I would also run on fire calls and what I did on those calls depended on what was coming and who we had. Sometimes i would be on the attack crew and once we made entry we would radio back to the incident commander and tell them what we saw and could use. Other times I would be on the mop up crew and what they do is go around and make sure the initial attack crew didn't leave anything…

    Firefighter: Emergency Medical Technician and Past Firefighters

    Having to see other people get hurt and not being able to help happens to me a lately. In life many accidents occur whether we want them to or not. There are several movies like “The F456y7allen”, “Ablaze”, “Bad Day on the Block,” among others, that show how firefighters overcome the flames and save peoples’ lives while risking their own. Seeing these movies and looking at how accidents happen has inspired me to become what we call a “hero,” meaning a firefighter. To become an amazing leader such as a firefighter you need to be not only trustworthy and courageous, but you must also be able to work and communicate with other people under stressful conditions.…
