Supports the VA Rescue Challenge
Roanoke County Fire & Rescue, Roanoke Fire-EMS and Salem Fire & EMS hosted the 14th Annual Rescue Challenge here in the Roanoke Valley
during the first week of May. Ten teams representing 27 agencies from Virginia and Maryland participated in this event. More than 230
participants registered, this being the largest number of participants in the history of Rescue Challenge which started in 1995.
Designed to challenge team member’s technical and organizational skills, Rescue Challenge is also meant to encourage networking between
the states’ highly trained technical rescuers, giving them an annual event at which to exchange ideas as well as enhance their skills
while working real life problems.
Koppers in partnership with Fort Lewis Fire & Rescue Station hosted the Confined Space Rescue on site at the Koppers Plant.
