On March 19th the Virgil Fire Department  had a training session. They invited the Marathon Cub Scouts Pack 90 join them for  some fire prevention  training and for a tour of the Fire Station. They showed the Pack their gear, extrication equipment,  and they preformed a donning drill. They also showed and let them hear what was like to use a SCBA.  Then also preformed a light and siren  demo, water supply demo, how to throw ladders , a hand line deployment demo, and what it is like to do deck and gun operations.  A highlight of night was when one cub scout was  originally scared out of his wits of them, gave Firefighter Zach Saltsman a big hug. There was a  great turn out by the members and the Pack 90.  They are grateful to all who participated.
