Thank you, Thorncreek Township!

A huge THANK YOU to the Thorncreek Township Fire Department for their incredible donation to the Columbia City High School Fire & Rescue program! 🚒👏

Today, Fire 1 and Fire 2 students received SCBA air packs, bottles, and masks for student training use. This generous donation follows a previous donation of a cascade system from Thorncreek Township, helping provide students with real-world equipment and hands-on experiences that prepare them for careers in fire and emergency services.

“I am glad we were able to do this to support the program,” shared Bill Brice of Thorncreek Township.

Fire & Rescue Instructor Zach Rumsyre added, “This is huge! This donation along with the cascade system from Thorncreek Township will set us up for quite a while.”

Partnerships like this make a tremendous impact on student learning opportunities and career readiness. Thank you to Thorncreek Township Fire Department for investing in our students and the future of the fire service profession! 🔥🧯
