SBFPD Fire Stations & Equipment

TRAINING CENTER

Our training facility includes a tower, an open field, concrete parking, various physical fitness obstacles and training props. The training center is utilized not only for Sunrise Beach Firefighters but is host to several regional events and The Revolutionary Fire Tac-tics Symposium, which brings instructors and students from all over the country to the lake area annually. 

Our training tower contains two live fire burn rooms and features moveable walls throughout the structure to challenge students in search and rescue scenarios. The tower offers various anchor points for high and low angle rescue as well as a roof simulator for cutting vent holes and laddering rooftops. This facility also offers various ledges, windows and floor openings to practice rescue scenarios and try new techniques. 

The District has also built several props surrounding the tower for scenarios, confined space training and self-rescue. On this site, we utilize the open spaces and wooded areas for wildfire training, rescue scenarios and other outdoor-related incidents. The parking lot is a training tool used for driver competency courses and pump scenarios. 

Station #1, erected on the same campus, is utilized during colder months and throughout the year for quarterly evaluations, bail out and self-rescue scenarios. 

The tower hosts monthly mutual aid training with our neighboring districts, providing the very best in training and producing well-trained and knowledgeable firefighters.
