Once again the New England FOOLS have brought together some of the finest Fire Service instructors from around the Country for an intimate one-day seminar.

We look forward to the opportunity to show the Midcoast of Maine yet again why with the New England FOOLS, Brotherhood is more than just a word.

Friday evening keynote address by Fire Lieutenant Ric Jorge of the Palm Beach County FL FD

This training will be dedicated to the memory of our dear friend; Suffolk County FOOLS President and FDNY Lt Rich Nappi, and all those Brother FOOLS and Firefighters who have gone before us. Let no mans ghost ever return to say that his training let him down

Definitely a worthwhile trip. I'll probably be headed up with Charter Oak FOOLS.

I know Eric and Ric personally. If you google either of them you will find that the presentation that they give is extremely well organized and full of valuable information no matter where you practice your craft.
