The Butler Fire Department will be hosting the 1st Annual Firefighter Challenge this Saturday from 9:00 A.M. until approximately 3:00 P.M. on the Wilson Tire parking lot ( Old Walmart lot ).
The event is open to all fire departments in Bates County and will include miscellaneous challenges. All of these challenges relate directly to firefighting, and will be used as a training tool to assist the departments in working together, as well as a competition. Deputy Fire Chief Jason Bennett has been working for some time to create challenges that will be beneficial for training.
Departments will be competing for a "Traveling Trophy" to be given to the winner of the competition each year.
The public is invited to come and watch the competition, with parking on the west side of the lot.
-our thanks to Butler Fire Chief Jim Henry
