Seven local citizens got first-hand looks at the operations at East County Fire and Rescue during its Citizen's Basic Fire Academy in March at the Fern Prairie fire station in Camas. During the eight-hour session, the citizen group learned about how fire districts serve the unincorporated areas in Clark County, performed emergency medical care, extinguished vehicle fires, and used extrication tools to tear a car apart. Participants included Scott Abels, Jim and Diane Case, Martha Martin, Mike Milani, Sheila Plato and Faren Ramos. ECFR firefighters who took part in the exercise included Arthur Bonenfant, Reece Bonenfant, Nathan Brimlow, Mike Carnes, Brad Delano, Alex Gray, Matt Hazlett, Paula Knapp and Zach Vetter. Camas firefighters included Dale McKenzie and Greg Weisser.

Coal train dangers are exaggerated It is really disturbing when you have an organization like the Sierra Club go through many of our smaller communities taking advantage of its members spreading such flagrant misinformation only to serve their own purpose.
