The Galion Fire Department will hold an open house on Thursday, Nov. 15, for a special career exploration program.

From 6-8 p.m., they are inviting anyone age 15-20 to visit the fire station, located at 301 Harding Way East. Participants will experience a firefighter/paramedic training. This includes simulated fires, using breathing apparatus equipment, handling tools and fire hoses, and first aid training.

If you are interested in a career as a firefighter, this is a great opportunity to learn what the job is like and speak to local firefighters. Please contact Chief Phil Jackson for more information at 419-468-5580.
