Last year's Explorer Inferno was a huge success, and we are planning to have an even greater year. The Explorer Inferno event is an opportunity for Fire and Emergency Medicine Explorers to participate in a hands-on fire school, where they may accrue training hours. The aim of the Explorer Inferno is threefold: To provide excellent hands on training, to do it safely, and to have a blast!
